running

 limitless 
is the feeling i have found
running through 
the ice coated snow 
my boots making 
satisfying crunching sounds
my breath 
creating clouds
that i leave behind 
with every bound 
time falling away 
becoming a mere memory 
a simple beginning 
to my complex history 
my chest heaves 
with the desire to live
and my feet pound
upon the bitter cold
part of this planet
while i learn to forgive
and forget
my body slowly growing 
tiny inch by inch 
while my spirit feels 
practically limitless
running 
through the snow
on this calm 
quiet afternoon.
