Progression

By Kimberly Rushing

Moving forward

Never looking back

I put my right foot in front of the left to accellerate

With a mixture of caution and confidence in every step

I inhale

With plans to let success be exhaled

Dropping stress

Like rain drops on the solid pavement

Moving down the sewer drain of forgiveness

Only to be set free

In an ocean of memories

I will never forget

I put my right foot in front of the left

Moving forward

But never, never looking back.
