This is Rally – Paul Woodford
There’s a moment
before the storm arrives.
Before the storm can end.
A need to believe drives us
through the setbacks, the challenges;
the tragedies of competition.
We fight for a title,
for a chance to believe that we;
we can be the ones in control.
That we can learn faith,
in a line we draw but can’t see.
A journey that starts and ends,
but is never finished.
A strength that is built and tested,
but never broken.
The hours blur at the dying of the light;
the final beats of a clock,
the stages calling.
Then it’s lights out, countdown over;
the fight thrown into focus,
as we charge towards the apex
at which we are defined.
This, is rally.
