• Looking ahead
    Wind tosses my hair

    Cool air rushing down my throat
    Tired, but I cant stop

    Keep going, each step another leap to the finish
    Drowsiness creeps up behind me

    The rubber of my sneakers beneath my feet
    the numbing sensation of the rocks underneath

    Nothing matters but to finish
    everything goes by in a blur

    I forget my fears after a while
    The blow behind me like the wind

    The rain falls down on my face
    it feels nice, it cools me down

    Persevere through the pain I might face
    Pebbles beneath my feet

    The stress seems to drip off me
    with the rain

    Not sure when it ends
    I just know

    Then I stop
    Its over

    I feel cleansed and refreshed
    Like the pebbles after the rain
