mindset

beads of perspiration trickled down his weather-beaten face
eyes squinting in the mercilessly sweltering sun
his arms are aching so badly

trembling legs hold him up but not for long
his fingers are sweaty and slipping inch by inch as time ticked by
his body is giving way

despite all odds he stayed up
maintaining balance he trudges forward
constantly reminding himself of the reward awaiting
he trusts in his willpower to get him one step closer
believing in his mind to forget about the pain
and placing faith in the hands of himself
he controls the situation
for it's all in the mind
and mind is over matter
