Hurdles
Learn more about other poetry terms
Walking the path
Hundreds, no thousands had tread before
Winding through the hurdles of life
College, finals, work
How does it all get done
I worked towards perfection
Never stopping
Focus.
I stand at the start waiting for my mark.
I tense up more and more every second that goes by.
Control.
My heart beats a million miles a minute;
I feel it's going to explode from my chest.
Breathe.
