Touchdown


Hold the prize that will get you far,

run to the end and win it all.

Tackle and proceed as you wish,

but thing is you’ll never stop me when I’m determined.

The few steps ahead will get you far,

drop the prize and everyone gets rowdy.

Pick it back up and keep going don’t fumble or fall,

just keep running and running until you see the promise land.

Good defense will be in your favor,

protect your dream like it was your last goal.

Kick the field goal and win it all miss and become ashamed,

just one kick will end it, one step will chance it and one tackle just might end it.

Strong enough to get back up and brush it off.

It’s game day and I’m ready to tackle my doubters,

push back my thoughts and run towards my dream.

I love writing it is just the best way I can express myself. A really nice person to get along with, just trying to come out of my shell more.
