The Race We Ran

We ran along

A long road

Few rests few stops

Through worries and woes

You were ahead

You were behind

You toiled along

On each side

Each tired step

Asked you and me

Where were we going

What did we seek

We struggled today

So tomorrow would be free

But Unbeknownst to you

Unbeknownst to me

This race that left us worn away

Just took us back to yesterday
