"The Race"

Folder: 
life

You brought me here,

Why? I don't know.

Whether you meant to,

I'm not sure.



That's in the past,

My life has begun.

I've started the race,

But will it be won?



Life started off great,

No hurdles at all.

But when your a child,

You have a ball.



When I was a teen,

Everything changed.

Things got hard,

The obstacles came.



Things got tough,

I cheated, I lied.

Then it happened,

I was disqualified.



I tried my best,

To get back in the race.

I learnt my lesson,

I quickened my pace.



When I finished the race,

And stood in the sun,

I learnt my lesson,

And guess what? I won!



But that's not the end,

The race still goes on.

I'll keep on going,

Work hard and be strong.
