Ode to Stairs

The sequences of steps behind the RB.
Yes I have been running up them, late every day for much too long.
Sometimes two at a time,
Sometimes singly,
Sometimes not running at all but carefully,
wearily,
plodding my way to class.
But that only when I was on time.
Which was rarely.
Today we met for maybe the last time.
And I won.

Goodbye suffocating steps.
I will miss you.

Maybe.
