Run faster and faster, loving the pain
For my legs and stomach are aching again
I'm angry for this, pumped to burn
Every little molecule which I have earned
My hamstrings in sync, my arms by my side
Let only the breeze be my guide
Energy pushes me and leads me on
Yet I fall to the ground, the motivation has gone.

Short, but simple and strong. That's talent!
From your poem, I can see myself running along some random beach, but my legs are tired and horribly aching, but yet you welcome the pain. I like how your poem can evoke a specific picture and emotion; that's what I'm looking for Thanks for entering!

This is a little too short for my liking,
but still a great poem nonetheless
