Running To Me

I like how the wind whispers into my ears
As I gallop through meadows and onto the rough town sidewalks.
Every step,
One after the other.
The knot that ties all my worries, stress, and anxiety,
They slowly unravel as I speed forward.
I like how it’s just me and the outside world
Even though I ‘ve ran through town multiple times
That I can now memorize every crevice and crack on the sidewalks,
I will never get bored of the thrill the rush gives me.
The freedom to explore 
The vast territory around me.
I will never get enough of it.
