Only a few more steps

It's there

It's right there

Only a few more steps

But with each step

It seems to be getting further and further

You walk faster

You still get nowhere

You run

You make no progress

Do you have to get to the end in order for you to say you were successful

Making an effort surely should be enough

Like any pain poetry piece, this was written in the depths of despair. I held onto the piece until I was healed from this particular pain. While I'm not perfectly healed, I would never post anything like this if I was still enduring these feelings. If you need help, reach out to a friend. Call someone. Call for help. Call anyone you can trust.
