My Home Away From Home
They tell me you are hard to conquer and I dare to try and conquer you,
I have seen others do so before me
And they tell me you are unforgiving and brutal and I witness first hand,
for you have knocked me down before
And they tell me you are the equalizer for many and I know this is true
because many have shamefully walked away in their defeat
And they tell me you are made for the graceful and the fearless and I am one of them,
I am fearless and dare to get back up after you have knocked me down yet again
You have showed me what to do to be triumph with my ways
The abilities I have created with make people watch me in amazement with what I have become
I have become stronger than an ox and quicker than a rabbit while training in your solitude
Sweating,
Pushing,
Running,
Never Stopping,
While running your never ending supply of bleachers on a cold afternoon
I have heard you laugh at me when I have fallen, I get up again so you stop
I battle with your emptiness everyday, sow hen you are full I can amaze the eager people with ease
