Forward

How do you save yourself
From yourself?
How can you pick yourself up
From the depths again
When your strength to do it alone
Is gone?

One limb at a time.
One movement at a time.
One day.
One month.
One year.
One step of growth.
One leap of faith.

I will move mountains in pebbles.
Entire beaches in grains.
A forest in leaves.
A meadow in every blade of grass.
An ocean in raindrops.
I will make moves in increments
And never lament my progress.

The journey is the destination.
