adrenaline
Learn more about other poetry terms
Soaring through the air,
heart pounding
and beads of sweat flying from my forehead,
the screaming line above my head,
the air throwing my hair
and rushing through my clothes,
The mind races
millions of thoughts
as the moon rises--
questions unanswered--
curiosity.
Energy exists
where energy is naught--
adrenaline rush.
So many things to do
Laced with excitement and terror
a fabrication of a dead dream
drowned out by the demands
the expectations
how they cripple our creations
My pulse began to race
Like a horse out of the gate
Then my muscles began to clench
Like a wrench on a nail
My feet are set
I am down and ready
My brow breaks into a sweat
But I keep my focus steady
Bang! My heart leapt with the shot
My adrenaline began to flow
My blood ran hot
As I let my body go
Biting my lip in anticipation
Sweat forming at my temple
I don’t know if I can hold on much longer
So I let go
My feet crunch in the woodchips
I run like a cheetah
I leap and hit the swing
