Treading forward,
wind pushing against my back
Finding a grip in the blowing sand
Gust ripping and I’m alone again
Ruminating about the sunset
What I’ll see if I continue moving
Head down, pushing against the wind
Marching forward, finding where I’ll begin
I will get my way
Taking fate by the hand
I will see my sunset someday
Making my way across this historic land
