Football and Life

by jxyooj

This poem is dedicated to my dear friend, who is like a brother to me, Bryce Calta. Football is like life. When you get knocked down so hard, you either get back up or lay beaten on the field of life. Thanks Bryce, I understand now. It's because of you all I got back up after continuously getting knocked down and my failing attempts to get up from the field. Thank you everybody! Now, I'm ready for some more action!

My name's Joshua Xiong and I'm a senior. Poetry is my passion, and with it I go through life and use it to express how I feel or what I think.
