The Road To You Poem by Marvin Tordillos

How long does it take to reach your heart?
I've been thinking that way since this last march
How in all my questions, do I reach your heart?
Are there any instructions or do I blindly charge?

I don't know what is ahead of this path
It's an uncharted waters of my life
I was never someone who likes to run
But my feet is telling me to do all that I can

Is the road to you like the spartan race?
Where there are obstacles along the way
Or is it like the triathlon where endurance is a must
To run and bike and swim on waters for hours

If the road is tough and there are mountains to pass
I would make each step little by little trudging that path
As I'm afraid of heights I might take time to reach the top
But each stride filled with unwavering consistency to reach your heart

I'm not used to running, jogging or hiking
But I find this road akin to my liking
I'm not a masochist but I'll enjoy the pain
Cause after all they say: "no pain, no gain"
