My Dream.

Folder: 
Book 2

The ice cold air fills my lungs.

Even with my eyes closed I can feel the power.

The crowd’s cheers and jests.

The feeling of belonging.

Letting the cold touch my body, it fills me with dread

Although dread is what I feel, I feel happy as well as pride.

I finally made it, this is my time.

Opening my eyes I look up and lock eyes with the referee.

He points to me, as I nod my head.

He points the other way.

Then looks back to the two men before him.

That’s when I see it.

The dark rubbery plastic puck.

It’s in his right hand.

If there is anything that I start to hate, it’s that puck.

That one item of the game, that one peace that I must stop.

I must stop the puck.

It must stop before me.

THIS IS MY CREASE!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Even though I have not played on ice, I can still understand the rush of thoughts that fill a Goalies mind. This is what makes us different. For us it’s about the puck, not the win. For if we just wonted to win, we would be forwards. One day it will all be clear to those who play the game
