Bolt no more

When you saw the heels
Two pairs of heels
You didn't look sideways 
You could see their back. 

The chasers changed roles
Though you didn't choose
Through their grimace 
Visible success on their face. 

You have not lost
Never in the past
Young age and fresh legs
Brought your rest closer. 

Au revoir athlete
Par excellence 
Your sprint etched in memory 
We wait for another bolt.
