"The Path of Each"

"The Path of Each"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD


 I 

Not all of us run the same pace

Not all of us run on the same path

Some move as fast as they can

Cut by countless blades of grass


II

Some move across gravel ,

bruised by each step they take

Some run and some stumble

maybe even hitting the unsurmountable wall


III

Some stay unmoving on their hills

And let the others pass them by

Just breathing one at a time

Not lifting a finger or a sigh.
