Overcoming Tryouts
Walking into the gym,
The butterflies in my stomach turn.
I watch a boy warm up and wish I could be as good as him.
My stomach continues to churn.
I don't feel like I'll make the team
Should I even try?
I cheer up by remembering my dream,
I know on the court I can fly.
Coed volleyball,
You may be scary
But on the floor I will sprawl.
I will leave this tryout with glee!
The tryout goes by,
I make the team, feeling like I was in the sky.
