Let the light in

Mother dearest told me I need to write something happy....This is happy...In a way. :P Love you mom! I don't really know if its a poem a story or a biography or memoir so....SORRY!

My voice rings out over the audience, sweet melodic.

My dreams finally fulfilled.

My heart beats to the rhythm of the music, in perfect harmony.

Young faces look up at me in awe, true friends watch me from behind the curtain

Cheering me on.

The chorus bellows out of me, the notes warming my soul.

This is what it feels like when I sing.

I am passionate about my hobby. But there is also a fear somewhere in there, making my breath quicken and my palms sweat.

This fear has betrayed me once. Now no one hears my voice, sees my passion or knows my song.

I am a no body…as I always will be…NO! I will not let myself think that way. THAT is what made me walk out in the middle of that song. That dark thought…

So many of my thoughts are dark…on the outside i'm a smiley bubbly girl with a Kansan accent. But if you get past the shell i'm dark, devious and, though I don’t like to admit it, I am sometimes mean.

Everyone has his or her doubts…I just wish I could get past mine. Break through the dark thoughts and let some light in, so that maybe the grass will grow and the birds will sing again…so maybe I will sing again.

We all have fears - they cause us angst, make us see and feel things differently, sometimes fear will cause us to blow things out of proportion in our own minds. Embrace your strengths, believe in yourself, find comfort in your inner confidence - you will soon emerge from the darkness to feel the warmth of sunlight on your face again.
This piece is an outpouring of mixed emotions - achy and heartfelt, a search of self, but, in the end, it really is about hope, the hope that you will find your inner truth and happiness ...just hang on to hope. Remember, nobody is nobody...everybody IS somebody...always!
