Training

Today, I was in class, and my friend asked, If you could play any sport, what would you play? 

Another one of my friends said, I play baseball. And then he added, are sports for you just jumping down into splits?

Well, yeah, for me they are. I responded, jumping down into the middle splits to prove my point. And then he said that girls are like spiders! Just because some of them can do crazy things.

Well, Kegan, you aren't wrong. But what you don't see is the training that we have to keep up with. Stretching, every day, and trying to be the best. 

It's fun, and I love it, but sometimes- it's hard. I don't tell him this, of course, but now there's that feeling in the air that says it all for me.

  • The wrong metaphor

    You compared me to a"beautiful flower."

    I don't think I'm beautiful.

    Especially not like the pink flower you said I was.

    I'd say I'm more like a notebook, 

    there, but not noticed.

  • Bring Back Bullying

    Why do people say that?

    How do people say that?

    They say it as if it's all a joke,

    and maybe to them it is,

    but to the people being bullied it's not, 

     it never was,

    and it never will be.

  • Useless

    Is it really?

    Is writing just a waste of my time, 

    and a waste of time for others to read?

    Is writing this here now, 

    is it really useless?

    According to some people it is.
