There Wasn't One Moment

It wasn't one moment

That made me fall in love

With snowboarding

I didn't stand at the top of the mountain

As the wind whipped my hair

And decided I loved to snowboard

It wasn't the moment when

I clipped into my bindings

Or when I finally took off

I didn't fall in love with snowboarding

As I sat on the chairlift

And looked down at the people below

Or when I reached the bottom

And snow sprayed everyone

There wasn't one moment

That made me fall in love

With snowboarding

It was all of them

It was the anticipation

As I stood at the top

And the thrill of going down

It was sitting on the chairlift

And then going up again

It was feeling free

Feeling in control

Feeling like I was the only person

No one else to worry about

No one else watching me

Just me and my snowboard

There was never one grand moment

That made me fall in love

With snowboarding

I just did
