I am running
I am running towards a goal
But I am running on a treadmill
Every step forward
Is a step backward
I am not getting closer
I am stagnant
It doesn’t matter how fast I run
It doesn’t matter how long I run
It doesn’t matter how hard I run
I can’t reach it
I can’t control the speed
And I can’t stop running
If I stop I will fall.
It’s frustrating
I am still running
I am getting better at it
One day,
I will outrun the treadmill
One day,
I will reach my goal.
