no longer looking down
no longer blinded by the dust
kicked up from the passage of others
no longer trampled
like the dirt under my feet
no longer railed at
by the badgering crows of life.
no longer despondent.
no longer morbid.
no longer grim
no longer weary
no longer shivering
from the lack of you
new life.
new strength
new me
i will walk because i can
i will talk because i can
i will laugh because i can
i will dance because i can
the memory of you lives on in me
not as chains on my soul
dragging me to the depths of despair
but as the wind under my wings
the strength in my limbs
pushing me foward
your running alongside me
i don't need to look.
i know your there
i feel you there
silent encouragement
we'll run together
and we'll never stop
let's go.
