Another Mile
Phoebe Workman
I don't know what to do or say
My body hurts in a different way each day
How much longer will I stay
Knowing this isn't how I planned it to be
Convinced myself a thousand times
That what I'm feeling is just fine
But I can't help notice heartache with each smile
Guess I'll check back in after another mile
Tumbling into apathy
Persistent throbs of feeling saddens me
How much longer will I feel
Like all these things are happening just to me?
I tell myself night after night
To keep these feelings hidden tight
They'll pass in time and I will feel alright
I don't know it for sure
But I'll still go another mile
