Final Draft Allusion Poem

"What a spazz" they said,

"This isn't just for anyone" they also said.
They all laughed at my dream

They told me to keep dreaming and

to stop speaking nonsense 

I listened to them and let them 

control my life

As i watch everyone reach their dreams

i get angry

No one believed in me

No one cared encouraged me

As i was about to lose faith in myself i felt a sudden 

urge to try and reach my lifes one goal

I was tired of listening to them and

tired of letting them take a hold of my life

Its time for me to start reaching my goal

No ones gonna stop me

and nothings gonna distract me

No matter how small i am or how weak i am

I'll be training day and night to reach my goal

It doesn't matter if i have to start all over again

I will do anything to play the sport i love

First Draft

"What a spazz" they said,

"This isn't just for anyone" they also said.
They all laughed at my dream

I listened to them and did what 

everyone wanted me to do.. 

After awhile i lost sight of my dreams.

The goal that i dreamed of was crushed

No one believed in me

No one encouraged me

I also had no faith in myself

But the sight of others

dreams coming true got me fired up

it got me determined to keep on trying

to never give up

I was tired of listening to them

"You're too short, You're too small,"

"You're too dumb"they all said.

Ive worked hard on gaining the recognition

I've always wanted

worked hard on my game

worked hard on running to the endzone

"Who is this person", They asked

"Thats my best friend, Thats my favorite player, 

Thats Rudy
