Walking towards you

My shoes are tattered to pieces,
and it's been hard to sleep lately
because of how much my feet burn.

You're far away from me
and I miss you so much
that I can't stop walking.

Even though I am tired,
I march like a soldier
through all sorts of weather.

Through the snow.
Through the rain.
Through the sun.

My feet are blistering,
and are ugly with pus-filled boils,
infected scabs,
and festering cuts.

I'm trying so hard to get to you.

I hope when me meet,
you won't look at my feet
and instead focus on my eyes.
