A tightly bound and weary heaving chest
Run, run, run
Deeply seated fear will be a permanently housed guest
To seek the mythological bay of rainbows
Run, run, run
Flames will rise from the abscessed torso
Tackling a long-dreamed of expedition
Run, run, run
The fingertips will soothe the apparitions
The future hanging in the balance
Run, run, run
The knees will not buckle under the rough parlance
Failed stars may harbor planets
Run, run, run
The tongue will lap up the exuberantly salted granite
There is no untouchable, unapproachable challenge
Run, run, run
Baggage shall not weigh down stamina and talent
Run far
Run fast
Run for the ages
Run to free your mind
