Here I am again,
Trapped in time and space
Writing these letters
It’s like a race…
I’m out in front
Got a good start
Running full speed
Pumping my heart…
The challenge is beautiful
I feel the finish line
I think about everything
That’s already been done..
I keep running
To reach the finish line
And I keep thinking
I am running out of time..
I got in this race
To stretch my limbs
Too also nurture
All my whims,,
To feel the fire
A livid flame
To hear my mind
Repeat my name.
I’m running out of fuel
But refuse to quit
I am a fighter
I can lick this
This race doesn’t seem to end
I am still in the lead
I open up my heart
And drop my seed…
I’m under a spell
I feel so confident
I am doing well…
Now I push myself..
Coming around the final lap
I hear my feet on the ground
Up and down the slap…
And I give it my all
Not just some
Can you feel me
The race I’ve won?
