Sprint

Awaken to the thundering roar of the sun so bright and glorious

Up on my feet, I hit the ground and keep running,

Looking only ahead, narrowing the tunnel vision,

Jump over the hoops, dodge distractions,

Wired into the muscle memory is to beat the game

Still, the thought of you lingers in my momentary thoughts,

Hoping to take a glimpse at you one day

Smiling once more under the bright glow of the sunset.

I’ll see you there

One day.
