The Skater
The skater falls
The girl bawls
The agony of mistake
So much to forsake
Dreams realized
Fans and commentators idealize
A flawless routine
An injury not foreseen
The blade glides
The coach guides
The thrill of winning
Their head spinning
The loser's misfortune
Points earned, only a portion
Their head bowed in emotional upset
Replaying the error, lots of regret
The winner soars
The loser closed doors
