The Basketball Game

by Kelly - Cancer

As I stand there dribbling the ball. I'm scared to think of what would happen if I would trip and fall. Would we lose the game? I would be very ashamed. 

5 seconds left down by three. I feel like the game all relies on me. As I stand there ready to shoot I try to regroup.

I feel the ball leave my hands. I can hear te people in the stands, I watch it go up towards the hoop. Oh please god make it through the loop.

My eyes are closed. I can hear the people scream. I finally got my dream.
