RUN
Train tracks
I’m running past them now
My foot steps
Haven’t even hit the ground
A new life
Sounds even better than it sounds
New friends
Trying to hold me down
The speed of change
Coming in swiftly
My mind is made
No time to be iffy
No time for me
To be nonchalant
When I know exactly what it is that I want
A front seat
The first row, the first chair
I pray to God
That my heart can get me there.
Time travel never sounded so nice
I hope in the future, I’m doing alright.
Not withholding the pain in my prayers
With faith, persistence, and courage I know I will get there
In years to come, God please pour into me richly
As I promise to move diligently
Through this hard boiled life.
