forward

Keep marching forward. Keep moving to that Cross.
“No,I’m covered in mud,”
I still go forward.
Keep going forward.
Keep marching to the Cross.
I fall in the mud. You call me out.
I keep my eyes on the Cross.
You call me out of the mud.
I keep moving forward-
I fall,

I trip,

I stumble.
I keep going toward the Cross.
