Burned (Kristen Nickey, jr.)
Watching the news
Stories about places
Destroyed by fire
I thought it would never happen to me
Grandma told my mom something
Horrible
Her house was on fire
Ashes like snow falling
But black
Big orange flames like campfires
But bigger
Everything was completely destroyed
Even our plans for the summer

Confidence
The smell of sweat after my basketball game
The taste of ice cold water when it's over
The crowd cheering your name because you scored the winning basket
Confidence is being a freshman and starting on varsity
Something that's unheard of in basketball.
