lost in the woods

I get lost in the woods,
but find my way out. I've taken a trail
that becomes
no trail
the leaves and branches,
the mud
and ice have dissolved the path into
nothing.
but I keep going.
I see the sun over there,
the lake,
I see a plane in the sky.
I have until sunset to get out.
i'll push through and get to the other
side.
I always do.
