Even when I'm doing something that requires alot of focus and dedication
My mind was still able to wonder away thinking about you.
I tried to concentrate on my rowing on that day.
I was neck in neck with my friend.
Both of us were putting in all of our strengths and energy into that last burst down the last few metres even though we were fasting.
I should have concentrated on that last burst.
Should have tunnel vision on that last few minutes.
But then the thought of you came into my mind.
I couldn't shake that moment out.
I started to lose focus.
Senior noticed that my pace was slowing down.Shouted to me to continue pushing.
Yes I was tired but I KNOW I can push myself more.
But that wasn't the point
You were the beautiful distraction in my mind at that point.
A beautiful portrait displayed in my mind.
How I wished you knew about it.
How I wished you knew how I felt.
And it's because my mind wondered about you at that moment.
That I lost the race to my fellow friend.
