Taylor
Hockey has been my life for as long as I can remember.
It kept me out of trouble growing up,
It gave me purpose.
I didn’t think I was missing anything.
The ice, the family, the girls….
What more could a man in his prime need.
Well, her, apparently.
She took my interest instantly, and deep down, I knew she was the one.
She was the light I never knew I needed.
But after a night full of passion, she was gone.
I spent months trying to find her, only to realize she was right underneath my nose,
Being kept away from me by someone the team trusted and now, she no longer trusts me.
Outside parties don’t want us together,
And she has her guard up,
But she needs to understand that I get what I want,
And what I want is her, always.
So get ready, my firecracker, I’m coming for you.
Penelope
I was always told who I married would be chosen for me,
That I must live by my family’s name.
But I was the black sheep.
Not wanting to be in a loveless marriage,
I rebelled as much as I could,
Adamant to live my life to the fullest.
Until I met him.
He consumed me, and I realized he could be my life if I let him,
That he could be my everything.
After a night of passion, I panicked, and I ran,
But I ran with something that belonged to him.
And I knew I had to find him,
But other forces didn’t want us together,
They kept us apart until the universe had other ideas.
We bumped into each other again, and the connection, the spark, had doubled.
But I was harder and more cornered off; it didn’t stop him though.
He wanted me and was determined to have me,
But the confusion was consuming me.
Did he want me, or did he want what was his?
Do I give him a chance, or run as far as my feet could take me….
