Learning to walk
Step by step
Trying to balance
Buckling legs
Feel I am not strong
Mind playing tricks
Thinking of next step
Planting foot firm down
Inching ahead slowly
Step by step
Aching muscles
Numb with pain
Pushing on regardless
Next step in mind
The path unclear
Clueless where it leads
I have to walk
A step at a time
Know I’ll get stronger
threshold crossed
Muscles get bigger
Pushing me farther
Now struggling to walk
Will soon blaze tracks
