The Race

This poem symbolizes the end of high school years :)

Feet dragging
Chains chafing
Muscles straining
Heart pounding
Lungs burning
Hurdles looming
Chains breaking
Stomach fluttering
Arms flailing
Falling.


Stand up
Chains gone
Feet moving
Heart racing
Chest heaving
Arms pumping
Hurdles bigger
Strength failing
Tears flowing
Falling.



Get up
Eyes flashing
Hope rising
Strength flooding
Body moving
Almost there
End nearer
End nearer
End nearer
Free.
