I hope

Borrowed a quote from Alfred Wainright for this one

You were made to soar, to crash to the earth, then to rise and.soar again
-Alfred W.

Step on the track
Do your warm ups
High knees, lunges
Kicks and tuck jumps
The starter, to your mark
He shoots
We start
Seven of us, sometimes more,
sometimes less
All running
To be the best
The stretch at the end, you feel like you're dying
But the speed, the adrenaline
The closest you'll get to flying
At times you may stumble, fall short of the rope
But you'll get up and run again
I hope

Your writing shines when you write about something that is dear to you, or that you feel passionately about. did you know that? :)

[Annabelle Lee]

Thank you! It's been a while since I wrote a good one. I believe tattoo to be my best an I was trying to top it. not really allowing myself time for ideas to come to me. This one just kind of popped up when I was looking through some old medals. Thank you, again :)
