If I told you what I was to think,
Or if I was to ever put it down on ink...
The night is silent when I do my deed,
for I do it for another person's greed...
Hand in hand,
I will lift you so you can stand...
Athletes with one common goal to win,
at the place of the residing torch they shall...
A candle will never be as tender as you,
no words I say will ever do...
The tension rises in my mind,
But this solution I still can't find...
What turned simple be came complicated,
now I am an institution that is imitated but never...
Time stretches like string of yarn to a cat,
a ball of worry surrounded in a mat...
If I knew the path I was to pave,
would I then be the one to save...
I am global spread out over land and sea,
a vast being that can never feel and see...
Eight months it took me to get here,
to a mother that was to take away all my fears...
I walked in to see if you were really there,
then I found that you never really did care...
