have you forgotten
why
your feet have settled at this pace?
you question
yourself and fate
because you haven't reached where they are-
is that where you are going?
have you forgotten the road to where you want to go?
or you don't know
and you want to run
down any path
because they are running?
have you forgotten why you don't run?
why do you doubt the ability of your feet,
when it has been a choice and a decision
to walk-
because this path needs walking,
not running
you know that
then why
do you ask
why?
why do you doubt your actions-
is it because they seem to have reached?
where?
when did your actions get entangled with the choices of others?
why are you so focused on their feet
when you have your own
and they are moving
out of choice
and requirement
do you want to run
or do you want to reach?
where you want to go
requires you to go slow
is your doubt
based on impatience
or change of passions?
either way
why do you curse your feet,
condemn your fate,
why do you hate the world?
have you forgotten that you are on your way?
