Softball

"Four bases, three strikes, two teams, One winner. It's not just a game, but a way of life. Softball, this is my desiny." - Anonymous

I have played since I was four.

Running bases, hoping to score.

I remember when I first struck out.

Walking to the dugout, starting to pout.

I love the feeling of catching a ball.

The rush of adrenaline, ready to call.

I don't know what I would do without softball.

I just know I would not have anything at all.

I always find the strength to finish a game.

Even if we are losing and doing lame.

Because I know I will get another chance,

to do better next time and continue this dance.

I never lose hope in the game that I love.

Because I know I will never have enough.

I know I will be sad my senior year.

And that is why I will forever hold it dear.

After my senior year I will be hit by doom.

I will have to give all this up soon.

Even though I can't play anymore anywhere there.

I know I will always be able to....here.
