He waits in position with his heart pounding fast.
The ball is won, the pass made and the die is cast.
Mum & Dad can’t help him, he stands alone.
A catch, a dive for glory and his team has won.
He tries but the ball slips from his grasp.
A groan from the “supporters” and a head in hands gasp.
’He should never have been picked” shouts a thoughtless fan.
Tears fill his eyes...this game is no longer fun.
Open your heart and give him a break.
In moments like this a man you can make.

Good moving write, some people just do not know the damage they can create with their words not matter what the circumstance may be.
Thank you and no people can cause so much damage without realising
