running

pounding on the pavement
to the rythm in my ears
fighting back the pain
refusing to shed tears
the heat sears up my side
the water wells
to my eyes
how did i come to this
so weak
my body screams
with every step
why was i so stupid
to let my self do this
i let my body go
now i must recoup it
my throuts dry
and my lungs burn
my heart pounds
and my shins hurt
my side screams
with every step
my insides bleed
with every breath
i should have been smarter
now i start from the begining
i could have kept it up
instead of relenting
now i pay for it
with every stride
i doesnt hurt i swear
i tell my self the lie
but i keep on pushing
and keep on striving
im taking my body
to living from dying
