Nowhere to Go But Now
July 8, 2009
Feet rapping
Against concrete
Mine ahead,
His behind
A steady rhythm
I pick up my pace
Our hearts beat
Faster
In unison
Engulfed in darkness
We run.
Away from the past
Away from the future
With nowhere to go
But now
I skid to a halt
His feet stumble
And we stand
Stuck
We are still free,
But trapped
By time
The future is coming
We can feel it
The freedom
Slowly
Quietly
Fading.
