The Running Lady
Her heart braved the sun and rain
Her soul endured the scorn and pain
For the sake of her motherland
With all the strength she had in hand
In eyes of many, she came the last
But to her nation, she made a blast
Her heart was bigger than a game
For she fought fiercely for her nation's name
For there is more in a competition
Than just a pot and consolation
You need to follow the voice of your call
To beat the high end of your goal
You don't just run to print your trace
You also run to finish you race
Whether you stumble or you fall
You need to conquer the heart of your soul
*Inspired by a Cambodian female runner in the SEA Games*
