Catch my breath
But it seems to keep getting harder the longer I keep moving on
And I’m trying to find my pace again.
But I feel like this is a race that I will finish, but when I cross the finish line, everyone will have gone home.
I know I’m not walking alone, but this path is rough, and I wonder, as I look around, if I stumbled off course.
So I must stop, and I just let the sun shine down on me as sadness tries to overwhelm me. Memories of you flood my mind today.
As the light lifts me and the darkness fades, I move forward with greater determination, embracing my path with trust, knowing that the end will be a celebration.
