lifes race

by Chanel - Virgo

the balls of sweat are slowly dripping down my face
as i pump my fists in the air harder than the last
my legs burn with weary and pain but i let them rest not
my chest heaves in and out while i pant a runners song
my breath just short of a heartattack
im afraid that if i stop i just might fall one day
i may never really have the chance to finish first
so while my weary body slowly fades
i savor my endurance just a little bit longer
until i cross that line
and make it through my life
