Married to Soccer
In 2019 there was a quarantine and everyone was bummed out. Everyone was so sad they
started to pout.
Quarantine was boring, it was so lame. Covid was like
a wild lion that we couldn’t tame.
I felt like I was trapped. I was so mad. I felt like I got slapped.
Covid kept me in a cage and all I felt about it ever since is rage.
I couldn’t even play soccer which was a bummer so I just practiced soccer in the summer.
When I couldn’t play soccer it was sad cuz I thought if I didn’t practice I would get bad.
I miss playing soccer. When I score I get so excited, it’s like this spark in my soul just ignited.
Every Monday we have a soccer game and I have so much fun and it doesn’t even matter if we
I lost or won.
I love to score and when I do the crowd roars.
Soccer is so fun and I love playing. And even if people call me trash I don’t care what they’re
saying.
I love soccer so much I feel like Messi when I get a clutch.
I started to play soccer when I was young and whoever thinks soccer is bad is just dumb.
I started playing soccer because it gives me life and if I could I would make soccer my wife.
