The dribble of the basketball,
The swish of the net,
The squeaking of my shoes against
The wood floor,
The passion and determination that
I feel is indescribable,
As sweat drips down my temples.
The basketball court is my home.
It is where all my thoughts and emotions
Are erased from my mind and all
I can think about is the basketball and
The hoop.
The court is a place where I can focus,
A place where I can put all of my
Thoughts and feelings into the
Things that are important to me.
Basketball is my life and
The court is where my
Life lives.
