My feet feel heavy with each step I take For each time I walk I hear each step, painfully loud The weight they hold unrightfully so, makes me ache And yet I continue to walk despite the desire to scream aloud My heart beating in my chest at a pace much too fast I hold this weight even if it hurts For a reason I don’t yet understand
I fear I may be losing my pace The steps getting slower each day Weight piling up as I’ve long lost my grace Forgetting the reason I’m walking, much to my dismay Yet I continue on with no apparent path Fearing what would happen if I pause.
