Runner
Quite but fast
Strong... Athletic as much as a
Runner is build to succeed.
Muscles tensing,
heart is jumping out of my chest,
sweat dripping off my face.
Running as fast my joints
can take.
A friendship built from pain
becoming a little bit easier everyday.
I'm quick as an arrow
but I also bend easily.
Though don’t make me snap
I am dangerous as a bullet
shot from a gun.
On the track or in my house
screams sound so slow and
quickly fading into the sky.
“Bang!” here comes reality
hitting from behind
I’m not ready
I...need more time.
