Alive
Alive
When my thoughts are too heavy
My feelings too numb
When my heart is unsteady
And the tears start to come
I put on my running shoes
Tonight I can't hide
I pace myself, breathing.
Letting go with every stride
The melody of my footsteps
The rhythm of my breaths
Have synchronized into nothing
A calm stillness inside my head
I'm light as a feather
I let myself fly.
The world is a blur, but tonight,
.... I'm alive.
