So, this poem has been a concept in my head for a few weeks now but it is just not transferring to paper at all. I'm opposite Carly, I can work with rhyming, when I'm not, I just cant get a groove.
Some people do it for the numbers
and push themselves til faint
Harder. Faster. Smaller.
But that just doesn't work for me.
Some people do it for the numbers
and tick off every mile
Harder. Faster. Longer.
But that just doesn't work for me.
I tried them both and tried again
hoping once to just fit in.
Why?
I've never been a numbers person
Neither science or math were my thing.
It was always the abstract that stuck,
That works for me.
I swim for joy and peace of mind.
I swim for stress relief.
I swim to help stay sane.
That works for me.
So add your numbers
Add your miles add your speed
I'm glad that works for you. I am.
But that just doesn't work for me.
I'll count my blessings one by one
and instead of adding numbers
I'll focus on instead
what works for me.
