You are my everything

You have me working my hardest

You teach me

You help me

You understand me


I work to be good at you

I get bumps…

Bruises

But still you cheer me on even when I fail


I’m not the only one

Millions of girls like me

Know that feeling

They try

The fail

Because of you


We look up to your stars

Your ambition 

Your future


Yet you are built on broken dreams

Only a hundredth of you lovers 

Become your legacy

The rest are forgotten in your history


Your known to the world as football

To America as soccer 

And to me as a future


Within ever person who has played

For you

With you

Because of you

Lies you


You live as 

a challenge 

a career 

A masterpiece


You live because of us

And I live because of you


I know I will not live forever

But you will…

In our hearts

Our hopes

Our dreams

Our past


Inside of us you will

Live forever.
