Competitive All-Star Cheer

Competitive All-Star Cheer.
A sport that creates a lot of fear.
Jumps, stunts, tumbling and dance.
A sport that makes you take a risk and a chance.
Having pride and confidence in your team.
A sport that pushes you to an extreme.
Competing against 40 other teams that want the same thing you do.
A sport that makes you want to be first and not number two.
Practicing 2 hours and spending 3 days a week in the gym.
A sport that literally makes you feel like you can’t feel your limb.
Being backstage, ready to go on and you can’t wait.
A sport where they train you to fall seven times, and stand up eight.
Your only choice at practice is to work hard or go home.
A sport where you have to be focused and not let your mind roam.
Going to competitions and feeling the nervousness.
A sport that all what you want to do is impress.
So many things going on at one time.
A sport that isn’t for pompoms and yelling a rhyme.
Hearing everyone, feeling the lights, and waiting for the music to start.
Hoping you don’t let the nervousness forget your part.
Praying you walk out with first place.
Taking in the moment, feeling embrace.
