For too long, he’d let himself slide
slacked off on his exercise
but recently he’s started
to get back in the swing
of things
His muscles ached and screamed,
but he knows he’s alive
by the brutal but beautiful burn
that he feels inside
He’s got energy like he did
as a kid,
he thought that was long gone
like a lost friend
but he’s glad to have it again
