Insurmountable Odds

The waves in the wake
Are enough to at least give pause
How far
Can you make
It alone

Even in the face
Of insurmountable odds
Can you keep
The pace
In the undertow

Will you return home
Or wind up in the depths
Below
I don't know

Even if
Calm should fall
You wouldn't slow down at all

When it seems like every hill
Has a summit way too tall
What would make
You climb
At all

The higher the stakes
You say bigger the thrill
I say
Bigger
The fall

It's not if you'll touch ground
It's how fast you'll come back
Down
And the sound

Even if
There were no obstacles
You're trying to tame
What's out of your control
So even if
Calm should fall
You wouldn't slow down at all

I'm over the way
You run
Take off before the starting gun
And yet the race
Is never won
