Dedicated to Lori
It's just a step away
This day that's called "tomorrow."
A short arm's distance
Will remove me from the sorrow.
It's just a step away.
On the horizon, I can see
A different way of living
A better way to be.
It's just a step away,
The nightstand books all say.
I read the printed words
Yet it remains today.
Step over step
I trudge endlessly on
Step, one more step
The horizon is gone.
Step, stomp, step
It's further still.
Steps, weary steps,
All up hill.
It's just a step a day
But it's further, further away.
Peace and hope are floating
On winds that sting my face
As they bluster by with race,
A speed the defies pace.
Peace and hope are gloating
I can't catch them today
They are still a step away.
