Journey of A Thousand Miles

They Say....
       " Journey of a Thousand Miles Begins with a Step!"
You took the first one,
I was ready to take the rest.
Last few steps are the hardest ones.
While I took Some,
You took none!
When I was at the 999th mile
I realised,
all this journey started in a disguise!
For, you never wanted to take
that one last step
and so here we are
a mile apart!
Taking steps away from each other,
ready to depart!
This time you are contributing!
For every step that I take,
You cover miles of drifting!
So here goes the lessons from life,
never give more than you get
& depend on only yourself to survive!!!!
