Running

Running is my passion,
its like a disease.
It's the only time I can think,
fly and feel free.
I push myself to do better
because i know i am capable.
I fight the pain, feel the power,
and in the end....succeed.
The time and effort that goes into running
will pay off in the end;
Build my confidence, make me stronger,
and help me reach my dream.
