Feel the pride
The time is up, This body is not mine, All given, the 6 minute grind, The colors stripped off, And glistening sweat, Falling, dripping, to the mat, Across the defeated, Tired and sad, Gave his all, just too bad, A third near, motions he makes, I grasp a hand, A hand grasps mine, I feel a thrill shoot my spine, Above my head, My hand is raised, I now can hear, The cheering crowd, The adrenalin ebbs, gone red shroud. I feel the pain, And feel the pride, Off of the mat, to the stand I stride, My name I sign, Proclaiming the win, Knowing I worked hard, did my best, And later, the medal I wear, Around my neck it weights, The cameras flashing, Cheerings blare, And I stand there, Glory in my eyes. |
