Maddy
October 8, 2021
Maddy
What made Maddy Run
was voices in the ocean.
A quiet power,
a long way gone.
A reminder of her dad,
that meant everything to her.
Should she keep running
or turn
and find her way home.
Is this really what she wanted?
To be a runner her whole life?
But the oceans current was too strong,
pulling her to run through the night.
