My time is up

Like the last grain of sand hitting the bottom of the hourglass

It’s over

Never to be part of a high school football team again

Never to take the field on Friday Nights

Never to be in front of the crowd

Never to be part of the same team with my friends

The team was my family

Four years of good and bad

Grinding and struggling

Working and being a leader

Football was the trigger for how I shared my personality

But my time has passed

I wouldn’t exchange what I have learned

I wouldn’t get rid of it

Football has molded me

Grabbing ahold and shaping my character

It made me who I am

Forcing me to be responsible and accountable

My career may have reached its end, but

I will always be a Canton Little Giant
