Two stones, one match.
One girl, no catch.
Hearts heavy,
Pressed levy.
Something's gotta tick,
Gotta keep on playing.
The target waits,
Patiently baits,
Hit it and win it all.
Miss it and lose the ball.
One stone, no match.
You'll lose; detach.
Hearts beating,
Nerves fleeting.
You have to hit it now or never,
You have to reach the target.
It calls for you,
Signaling your cue.
It's your last shot,
Gotta make arrow meet dot.
