Couplet


The breathing starts building As My body keeps pushing My mind knows it'll pay But My drive is being tossed away Trying not to cave in Perspiration travels from my forehead to my chin My body cries out helplessly for mercy Going through tribulations like Percy Nearing the end the light starts to dimmer My fight slows down as the temptation grows bigger I push for the last time As I'm running away from a crime Heart pumps resoundingly As my diagram lengthens My body sighs relaxingly Thankful for the intervention
