            From time to time i'll get motivated to start writing as soon as i start working out or running. It tends to get a little bothersome at times being all i want to do in the precise moment is work out. But to all my fellow writers out there, you know when inspiration strikes you, there isnt anything to stop you from putting those words or ideas on paper, just so you don't forget it. Anyway, this was one of those times.

I lay in wait Tear it away By making it break Find comfort in pain remain the same Forever unchanged Im in the gym To work me out Make me sweat Break me down Put myself Through torture And pain While I hastily Pick up some weights Run around Beating me down Making sure Im working out Trying and fighting Like never before Turn it up a notch Until my bodys sore Going through Another phase Everyday Unmatched Unscathed I wont change lanes I will always be the same Forever unchanged

We are all our own greatest enemy. I thrive on facing myself everyday.
