'What is Perfection'

Perfection is 40 minutes of football playing so hard you can't stand after it all.
Fighting for every inch! Every yard!
Hitting everything that moves very hard!
To battle like gladiators is what we choose,
To us it DOES matter if we win or lose.
Fighting through 3 hours of practice in the dead of summer!
Frostbite on you fingers in the frozen tundra
Blood, sweat, and tears are part of the game,
But being victorious always erases the pain.
Injuries heal, pain fades, and bones mend,
But for us, the memories will never end.
Perfection is real and can't be bought,
It needs to be earned where battles are fought.
