I wipe the sweat from my eyes. IT drips from under my helmet. the quarterback calls the play, a short pass to the wide-out, also known as me. the ball is snapped, bodies slam together, one side trying to get the QB the other trying to protect him. I take off, running past the guy trying to cover me, the ball hits my diamond and I pull it down. I keep running praying my guys keep their blocks up. All of a sudden i hear them. Footsteps. Close to me. Pounding, rhythmic, getting closer. I push myself harder, the footsteps get louder, closer. the endzone is close but they are closer.I wait for the shock of the hit but push harder. As I get to the endzone and look around, there was no one nearby. The footsteps were my own.

Never give up. Never let the darkness win. Fight for the light. deep inside of every hear there is a light that never goes out. never give in to the darkness. never let go of what you love. because it's not worth the misery of giving in.
