Everything changes when I'm here
The drive diminishes when I'm near
One more lap, and I'd claim the prize
But I lose focus at the crucial time
Am I broken?
*******************
I've tried everything
I've retraced my steps to the beginning
With the same zeal, I embark
And fizzle out at the end
What am I missing?
*********************
There's no one to rescue me from myself
I'm my own worst enemy
I bind myself in fetters
I can't free me
********************
No one can free me
I'm in a mental war
Only I can vanquish me
It's the only way to cross the finish line

Seeing that there are many people out there who can’t fully express or understand their emotions, it gives me peace to pen down words that many can relate to.

That was exceptionally well written. I was thoroughly impressed and enjoyed it immensely.
