Miles of a Marathon
Sometimes the finish line seems to be so close
Down the road, just a few breathes away
"Finish strong" they say
You keep your head up
Keep your legs moving
Your heart beating
Just thinking
"It's almost over"
Sometimes the finish line is miles away
A dark, endless road
You're out of water, out of breathe, out of time
Weak, weary,
Ready to sit
To still
Yet you must keep going
You must keep breathing
You must think
Although miles away,
You must be strong
You are strong
