escape

Nervous, shaking, i take the mic

I will not back down

The music starts.

Somewhere, deep inside, I feel myself being overcome

by the emotions.

my mind is in another place.

peaceful

quiet

but for the gentle pulse of the music

You are not alone

but i struggle, caught

by the ending notes

No! I don't want to go!

It is already too late

the sharp sound of the audience clapping

has broken the spell

yet again

and i ache 

for the next time 

i can escape into my world of music

Wow, there is a lot of emotion in the poem, I really like it.
Though it would be good if you add some more, but its your poem, and its good like it is :)
Great poem, you did a good job writing this one
