Running until our lungs give out But strong enough to laugh and shout Slowing down, stopping to rest Lost in the moment, catching our breath Prisoners no more of time or space Flying fleet-footed, not leaving a trace Behind us the footprints and settling dust Are merely a memory, for the future we must Become fully present For in the forge of the present, the future is cast To escape the gravity of the past All we need is desire to take the next step Sometimes stumbling forwards we must never forget The arc of our journey is in our own hands Life’s trajectory, subject to our demands Yes, destiny lies hidden in the choices we make And the road before us is the only way To get back home
