Lightning Over Rocks
My muscles tense
Ready to explode
Shot out of a gun
I attack the rail
Glide over it
Catch the wall
Drop and run
Overcoming the obstacles
Overcoming my fear
My legs arc over the the rough stone
As I release my hands from the cold steel
Enjoying the moment
Enjoying the feel
I can't give in
Pressing on
I enjoy the challenge
Give me all you got
The ground races towards my legs
Right before we collide
The world slows
CONTACT!
Roll into a run
Into a vault
Into myself
Breathe
Yes breathe
Breathe, and focus
Because one slip
I don't even allow the thought
