My Life, My Body, My Soul,

They all go into playing lacrosse.

Lacrosse is my thing,

My love,

My sport,

And the only thing that motivates me to get up in the morning.

Lacrosse.

It's an addiction,

A gift from god.

Lacrosse,

It's like a Hope,

A Dream,

A place to go when all others fail.

When i run it feels like i am flying.

When i score it feels like i am on top of the world.

The stick; my gun, my weapon.

The Ball; my bullet.

The goal; the target.

The players; my friends, my teammates.


What i have accomplished,

is what i look up at every day,

On my wall.

What i haven't yet accomplished,

Is the momentum that drives me to succeed.

"Time, the cradle of hope.... Wisdom walks before it, opportunity with it, and repentance behind it: he that has made it his friend will have little to fear from his enemies, but he that has made it his enemy will have little to hope from his friends." ~Charles Caleb Colton

I like it, but I think it could use some rhythm.

I really liked your lax poem. We are doing a project in la class and I wanted to use yours for my project.  Could you send me a little bit about yourself.  I also play lacrosse and love it!  Thanks!
