"Don't ever let the media tell you what to look like. You're beautiful the way you are. Stay beautiful, keep it ugly." - Gerard Way.


The roar of the crowd
as I enter the stadium
thrills me and fills me

The bright shiny lights
beam down on the field
illuminating it
and protecting it
from the dark and cloudy night

I glide over the rough grass
feeling as if I’m floating on air
and take my position as center defender

I bounce lightly on my toes
letting the pungent smells of fast food
from the stands envelope my body
and the screams and shouts of excitement
fill my ears

A bitter taste fills my mouth;
the taste of anticipation

The whistle blows
The game begins
Now is the time to play the game
