Cursed to run
(Written for the RUN competition)
Born to run,
yet dream to fly.
Dare to dream, of touching the sky.
On the ground,
I stay all day.
But I dream, of drifting away.
Oh how this useless body has bound me,
it keeps me chained.
My spirit waned.
Lift me up,
let my spirit soar.
Higher, higher, wanting more.
Dare to dream,
chasing the sun.
Yet evermore we are cursed to run.
Born to run,
yet dream to fly.
Dare to dream, of touching the sky.
On the ground,
I stay all day.
But I dream, of drifting away.
Oh how this useless body has bound me,
it keeps me chained.
My spirit waned.
Lift me up,
let my spirit soar.
Higher, higher, wanting more.
Dare to dream,
chasing the sun.
Yet evermore we are cursed to run.
