Running--

Pocahontas (Disney Dream Portrait Series) - Annie Leibovitz

I was running
In my dream
I was running

Running--on smooth concrete
Running--past full trees
Running--against the cool wind
Running--through the soft sunlight

For once, I was running forward--to where?--
flying faster and faster to an unseen finish line

For once, I was not running away--from what?--
fleeing faster and faster to some unknown escape

For once, I was running because I wanted to--

I was running
in my dream
I was running--toward--
