I am...

I am in pain.
I wonder why it never stops.
I hear the fans in the stands.
I see fourth and goal fourth quarter with the game on the line.
I want to be out there, making my mark.
I am in pain.

I pretend my injury doesn't define me.
I feel hurt. Physically and mentally.
I feel the ball in my hands.
I worry about my future.
I cry knowing the outcome wont be the one in my dreams.
I am in pain.

I understand my chances are one in a million.
I say I'll be that one.
I dream of the day I set foot on that field again.
I try to get better.
I hope I recover from what most people what have already given up on.
I am in pain.
