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

February Writing Prompts – Loose laces and tight triumphs – Day 15/28
