Q4 Ind Reading Genres- Poem


His Last Breath



I'm tired Coach                                                                           I'm tired
                                                                                                      of your excuses son
My head hurts                                                                            My head hurts
                                                                                                      from all your complaining
I can't do this much longer                                                        I can't do this much longer
I want to win                                                                             I want to win
   but it's taking its toll on me
I can't                                                                                        I can't
                                                                                                     win a state championship
                                                                                                     with players like you
This is ridiculous                                                                      This is ridiculous
It's just a game                                                                          It's not just a game
                                                                                                     our town needs this
YOU need this
My head hurts
I can't do this much longer                                                       I can't do this much longer
I can't take the heat                                                                  If you can't take the heat
                                                                                                     I'll kick your ass off this team
My dad would
Kill me                                                                                     Kill you
Think about me for once                                                         Think about me for once
This is my life                                                                         This is my life
I'm scared
                                                                                                Man up
It's hot
                                                                                                Be tough
It't not fun anymore                                                                It's not fun anymore
to play the game I once loved                                                   to babysit kids like you
I'm done
I quit
This is bigger than you and me                                              This is bigger than you and me
My head hurts
                                                                                                Man up
It's just a game                                                                        It's not just a game
