Half Marathon
Walking to the start
Nervousness in my heart, boom
Nervousness departs
Running and relaxed 
Running around the big track
Leaving my small tracks
Laces untying 
Braces unwrapping on legs
Paces unfolding
Finally, turn around 
Mile 6.6 feeling crowned
I can't back down now
Mile 12 almost there 
Meanwhile, my legs are burning
Denial of the end
Seeing the finish 
Tiredness finally diminishes
I finally finished

I ran a half marathon and wanted to write some poetry about it.
