Race Against Time

Declared war against time, 
broken shield and armour, 
with no blade in hand,
the battle is on and am already late,
so much to do and no room for love,
time has a way to turn things upside down.
the battle is not fair
but I am not the type that gives up,
let it push me, toss and throw me off the ground
am going to get up and weary I may be
shall throw a punch with all I got
It can not break me as will is all I got.
A will to fight and a will to survive,
Victory may not be mine
but defeat I shall not accept.
