palms sweating, heart racing in my chest
ready to break free, needing to become anyone I want to be.
Facing that audience,
lights shining bright.
I shall, even just for tonight, become ..........
a singer, a dancer, a president, a doctor, an author, or even an artist.
Leaping into the air, toes pointed behind me
singing a song as I hear the audience clap along
seeing their standing ovation as we bow, stepping behind as the curtain closes.
My home in my sight, energy still high, smile spreading across my face as the realization comes
that happiness does exist, wether it's in the form of a best friend, sister, mother, father,
or even,
just a simple, small, stage.

Walking up those steps
palms sweating, heart racing in my chest
ready to break free, needing to become anyone I want to be.
Facing that audience,
lights shining bright.
I shall, even just for tonight, become ..........
a singer, a dancer, a president, a doctor, an author, or even an artist.
Leaping into the air, toes pointed behind me
singing a song as I hear the audience clap along
seeing their standing ovation as we bow, stepping behind as the curtain closes.
My home in my sight, energy still high, smile spreading across my face as the realization comes
that happiness does exist, wether it's in the form of a best friend, sister, mother, father,
or even,
just a simple, small, stage.
