A Long Road

Crawling, walking, running

Away.

Trying to reach the end of the

Day.

Searching for the finish line, and meaning to cross.

Looking for a little escape from

Loss.

I drag myself to keep moving

On.

I'm hungry and tired and my hope is nearly gone.

What do you do when you want to give

up?

I wait for answers to fill my empty

Cup.

I wait for them to flood over and spill onto the floor.

My mind could be like a rocket ready to soar.

Like a brand new car waiting to be

driven.

Down the longest road that it is

Given.

It could drive forever but only with those answers.

Answers explaining why my mind screams 'the chance is hers!'

Answers as to why I shouldn't give up

Today,

Answers to why I have to keep running away.

And a little bird flew by me and gracefully

said,

If I stop now, my future will be 

dead

I once again think of how I must

fight

For my family, my friends, and for what is right.

I gotta keep on moving and

Going,

Until the whole world is listening and

knowing.

When it's cold, I'm tired and falling to the ground,

I will run down the longest road until justice is FOUND!
