race the night

the long awaited day has finally arrived... but the night has not!

as the hours & minutes hand tick towards the evening, my heartbeat rate increases.
in my mind, I have been running through the route, visualizing the pains & aches.
now the route awaits me; playing the angel & the devil.
I can feel the fear in me, but hang on!
the thought of it alone excites me; tingling down my spine.

mind over body; pushing the limits.
battling in the night, alone in no man's land.
endurance is what I need.
till I've crossed the line, I'll be racing the night.
