HUMAN

Run for my bones
Run for my heart
Run for my two
Children so I
Don’t scream & shout.
Run for my mind
Run for my Soul
Run to free myself
When I might lose control.
Run for my body
Run to think clear
Run to write words
To remember each year.
Run to push limits
Run to dig deep
Run to stay present
So I don’t fall asleep.
Run to find joy
Run to find me
Run to keep going
When it’s too hard to see.
Run to just run
Run to just be
Run to be human
God’s gift to me.

Tell me what keeps you lacing up your sneakers?
