The skater

The vibrations under my feet
As I kick back then rebalance myself
They get stronger
Like a tiny rumble under the atmosphere only I am here to feel
It's almost like it medicates me
Let's me know I'm alive

The wind whipping past my face
The deep inhale after a long stride
Cuts and bruises and broken bones
Remind me that I'm alive

I set my foot back
push the other one forward
Up pops the board
As I feel no vibrations anymore
A split second later I'm back on the asphalt
A perfect land as the board goes back to vibrating on the ground

It's not just a hobby it's a passion
A huge commitment
It requires a strong mindset
And a daring personality to stick with it

Please don't misinterpret me
For I am only a skater
With a good foundation
And strong lasting morals

But a crazy story I do have
And it's very seldom I tell
But the vibrations under my feet
Are all I need to show I'm strong enough to not dwell
