~The Rhythm.~

Your legs start to move
Step
Step
One foot
Overtaken by the other
The race begins.
Chasing each other
Your feet move faster.
Round a corner, one slips inside
Regains control
The race goes on.

A hop.
A skip.
Acting like a turbo, the pace gets ever faster.
Quickly now.
Pistons pumping to fuel your feet
Flashing by -
Left.
Right.
Left.

Now the arms, extra power
Here comes the wind
Blowing cool against your face -
Grabs your breath and hurls it behind you.
Just a memory now.

Right.
Left.
Right.

Pounding feet on the ground,
In time with your pulse
Beating just behind your ear -
Da-dun. Left.
Da-dun. Right.

Nothing matters now except the beat -
Stay in time -
Don't slow down.
No thinking
Just acceptance.

Running to be free.

Running to escape.
