Years pass throughout this race.

You were the prize,

At least in my eyes.

I reached you,

And I fell.

You were hurting me,

But I couldn't tell.

Now it's time to let you go.

At last, you're off my shoulders,

Your weight as heavy as boulders.

Now I walk into the night,

And all I see is this shining light.
