The Runner

I run to clear my mind Of life’s extremely stressful day Freeing my thoughts of all Negativity and the clogging of my brains I run to cleanse my soul Sweating out all toxins and impurities Rejuvenating my body’s energy Taking it to new heights I run to clear away all confusion That’s deep in my thoughts An replace them with positivity So, the good energy will soak inside I run to feel the breeze upon my face And feel the whispers of the wind Stroking my body as if It was coming from someone’s touch Heat, sweat or cold cradles me as I pick up my running pace According to the seasons While I smell the freshness or Staleness of the air’s divine With each step I take I begin to pound out my fears And disappointments As I run, I take control of Each breath I take To survive each path I take In life, as I run
