She can feel them coming up behind her
Strong as ever, and faster than before
The same desire, to cross the finish line
Legs in motion, the sweat starts to pour
By the time she reaches the end of track
Her laces have easily loosened their grip
But, none back down, no, not in the least
Tight triumphs strengthen their fellowship
