Prize at the Finish Line

This fight is still beginning

The finish line is no where in sight

The starting gun has just gone off

And have only run so far

I have never quit before

Now is not the time for firsts

Only first place

You're elusive

One second here, the next moment gone

Not sure if the prize is even there

But from here the prize is worth the fight

I can't let go

Not until I know

If I can reach the goal

That I long to exist

Then you can see who I am

Til then I run

I chase, and I fight

Obstacles creating momentary drag

My thoughts, feelings and mind racing against me

Here is to the hope

The hope that there is still a prize at the end of the race
