Athletes


Athletes were not built overnight

they were built on the field, out on the track,

on the court, and wherever else they may be.

athletes do not have one areas they originate from,

they come from far and from near, in another country or even ight next door.

we athletes do this we must and success is strived for, 

whether there's a support system behind these athletes or not,

they are driven by something greater. 

The will to fight the will to succeed, no one should put them down

no one shall stop them from their goals.

only they are the ones I could stop progress to put their life

and their sport on hold.

only they hold this in their hands and no one else.

And well there are some athletes that fade away,

there are those shine bright, thriving in their athleticism,

and reach new goals and inspiring others to succeed.

To drive forward in life no matter what you do no matter what anyone tells you.

dont stop believing don't stop reaching 

your goals aren't impossible because the word possible exists in

imPOSSIBLE.
