Reflecting
I will always remember
The hug you gave me
When I found out that we had come first.
Feelings of joy, surprise and confusion
Mingled together.
I couldn't believe I was really there.
Then, very quickly,
After the shock,
Dawned the realisation
That other people deserved a thought;
Those who were upset tonight
And those who will be upset tomorrow.
I cried for them.
Although you may never know,
I am writing this to remind myself
That I really do care;
That I really do care;
That it's your hug and your joy
Which I will always remember
Because these things mean more to me
Than any prize.
