"In hopes of reaching the moon, men fail to see the flowers blooming at their feet."


Thump Thump Thump
Feet hitting the ground
She finds comfort in
The familiar sound

Badump Badump
Her heart beats strong
Its steady rhythm
like a song

Thump Thump Thump
The people stare
Her hair unbound
Her feet are bare

Badump Badump
Her pulsing heart
Never falters
As whispers start

Thump Thump Thump
Feet meeting ground
Fast as lightning
Can’t be bound

I love to run--especially barefoot in the summertime. People may give me weird looks, but it won't stop me from doing what I love.
