Open your eyes and start running <br />Don’t stop running <br />Your heart is beating <br />Your head aching <br />Your heart is breaking <br />Keep running and don’t stop <br />And don’t get down your knees and beg for mercy <br />What are you doing? <br />Don’t stop! <br />Sweat is pouring down your face <br />Your head is coursing with pain <br />Your side is aching <br />You’re almost there! <br />You stumble but you keep going <br />You’ve been through all these obstacles <br />Oh, how rough the road has been! <br />Oh, look there is the finish line <br />A blinding white light <br />Then it’s gone<br /><br />jeanne harmon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-race/
