Run

If the tips of my toes are burning
Then my job is done

If the space between my ribs is aching
Then my job is done

If my cheeks are as red as roses
Then my job is done

If my hair is ragged and soaked
Then my job is done

If it hurts to take a deep breath
Then my job is done

If my face is streaked with salt
Then my job is done

If I cannot take another step
Then my job is done

Until it is once again
Time for me to run
