36. Lost

❀

I walk on, not knowing the path I travel, but simply walking on because maybe somehow, I'll reach where I want to.

I walk on.

I walk on, until my heels begin to ache, still not knowing where I'm headed towards, but knowing that it had to lead somewhere.

I walk on.

I walk on, until my legs are beginning to give way, my mind wanting nothing more than to stop, yet knowing that if I could walk so long, surely I could see this through the end.

I walk on.

I walk on until my feet begin to bleed, tired and worn and close to falling, yet determined to reach the end, crazed at the sheer thought that it was all for nothing.

And so, I walk.

Aching to stop.

Yearning to fall.

Struggling to breathe.

Until finally, I see light.

I walk on, envigoured by the sight of finally reaching my calling, until I stop, horror-stricken.

I'd walked back to where I had begun.

I'd walked back to the start.

I'd walked into nothing.

I'd begun, lost.

I'd ended.

Lost.
