I must keep running One foot in front of the other One foot in front of the other I can't stop, I can not look behind me If I look behind me my blood will freeze, my heart will stop I must run harder for the light is getting smaller, the path is getting harder my body is getting colder I must ignore the pain I must ignore the cold I must keep running One foot in front of the other One foot in front of the other Why is it getting colder Why is it getting harder I must keep running One foot in front of the other One foot in front of the other I will never stop It may get colder It may get harder But I will never be defeated I will never stop My heart is still beating

Was inspired to write this after reading "The Swimmer". I decided to end it on a good note instead of it ending it leaving the reader depressed like "The Swimmer" did.
