living in new york
is a fast pace
so fast that everything
passes by with a blink of an eye
times when we
need to appreciate the little things
that stand out
least expected, its lights up
that brings a smile to one's face

i'm always on the go
going 100 miles and runnin
going so fast
need to slow down just a bit
catch all in my
conscious
going so fast
sanity got left
5 miles back
2 revolutions ago
still going 100 miles and runnin
mind catching my soul
need to slow it down
catch hold of my breath
rebuild my strength
and dignity
as i was going
i was going, but not 100 miles and runnin
on this particular day
i was finding myself
once more
i have faith and determination
although the setting is fast pace
i take the time to embrace beauty
of all
at the end, appreciating everything will be reason why i continue to stand tall
