Going Faster
"Going faster"
"The finish line is in sight but even
still.
my heart begs for a break but not
my will.
I'm going faster to become the only
winner.
Everyone is professional but i'm
just a beginner.
They laughed and told me to go
home.
So i must beat them with dignity.
running thru the ribbon all alone.
Picking up speed i passed them and
caused them to turn.
Angry looks i got and as i smiled.
leaving them in my dust to burn"
