So this was part one of a four part poetry project I did my freshman year on the book Friday Night Lights. Hope you enjoy!
I had a plan
It was to play football in college
I never thought it would change
Then suddenly as if in a twist of fate my world turned upside down
An unstoppable injury, a possible surgery
The coaches think it is impossible for to go back to the glory I had once had
That my glorious and famous career was destroyed
But as I play glimmers of the old me come back
Only for a second, a moment
Then in a dash it is gone
I fumble awkwardly with the ball as if I am a rookie
I had a plan
But something had changed and that plan
That so called wonderful dream
Disappeared
And now that it's gone I don't know how I will go on
