Poem about the joys of cross country
It Means Something


It means something when you approach the line
It means something when the gun goes off
It means something when your heart skips a beat

Cross Country

It means something when you take your first stride
It means something when you glance down at the blur of blue and gold
It means something when you see the ground pass beneath you

Cross Country

It means something when you hear the cheers of your teammates
It means something when you feel as though you're flying
It means something when everything is just right

Cross Country

It means something when the girl that was ahead by so much is now ahead by so little
It means something when you push yourself to your limit
It means something when you pass the girl who was holding you back

Cross Country

It means something when you see the journey coming to an end
It means something when you take your final strides
It means something when the finish line is behind you

Cross Country

It means something when you look back with no regrets
It means something when you are rewarded for your accomplishments
It means something when you left all you had right where it belonged

Cross Country
It means something
