The Run Mode

Whether the steps are shuffling

Measured or galloping,

The stride is a mere illusion.

The distance you have traveled

Defy linear measurement.

One often wonders

What may lay on the other side?

A ledger, a reward

Penance or perdition?

But it is those who

Savor the journey

Without fearing the destination

That find that the question

Need not matter at all.

You have inspired

You have created,

You have nurtured

You have given,

You have loved

You have lost.

Most of all,

You have lived,

While being you.

You have breathed

All that is true.
