Exhaustion is the color gold, silver, and bronze
The sound of a million reverberating feet running towards their goal, a winner yelling in triumph
Exhaustion is the taste of water, sweat, and tears hard earned
It smells of dust, thrown into turmoil by the breeze
Exhaustion looks like a broken finish line caressing a runner
The feeling from exhaustion is sheer happiness
