Marathon

It's a long, bumpy road, but you have to try your best.

Keep running along, ignoring the pain in your chest.

Don't go too fast, because if you do you'll lose all your strength.

Just keep pressing on, and don't think about the length.

Clear your mind completley, don't let anything distract you.

Stay focused no matter what, remember what you came here to do.

If you do lose focus, you may trip and fall.

and if that happens, you might lose it all.

But pull yourself together, and be on your way.

Gather your belonging, pack your bags, dont look back or sway.

Stand tall, hold your head high, with a beautiful smile on your face.

Because everything is just going to get harder until you finish this race.
