Feet thumping
Arms pumping
Heart pacing
They neared the finished line
A foresight of recognition playing in the mind
Sound deafening
Blast crippling
Flesh scattering
They forgot their tired limbs
And fled in search of safety’s arms
Coward hiding
Child dying
Future warring
A terrorist attack mentioned
A feared retaliation won’t see light
