Here I Am.

Inspiration came from Jasmine Richards. She is Amazing. This is basically how i feel about myself. And i think its the way to be.

Here I Am

 

I'm known as the good girl

Who's Quiet

The one you can talk to

When Your feeling Blue.

But in My mind

I want to be more than just that.

More than just an average girl

Got the ability to rock your world

It's time for me to arrive at

My point

 

Here I Am

Hope you can see

This is who I want to be

Life's to Short

To Sit and Worry

It wasn't made for things to hurry

Or to put on some big scam

Let the whole world know

Here I Am

 

I may keep my feelings to myself

Always the one in the audience

Cause everyone needs a friend to clap for them

But inside I'm Screaming

The only way I'd be beaming

Is if i could just switch places

And be the shining star.

 

Here I Am

Hope you can see

This is who I want to be

Life's to short

To sit and worry

It wasn't made for things to hurry

Or to put some big scam

Let the whole world know'

Here I Am

 

Tell Everyone to make some room

You can finally be the real the real you

There's no way you'll be ignored

Not anymore

 

Here I am

Hope you can see

This is who I want to be

In life you find

That being yourself

Makes you happy

And above all else

You can say without a doubt

Here I am.

Lindsey. I must say, you are something else, and I've known you my whole life. In your writing you have found the way to express yourself that so many people have tried and failed at. To live in the world we do and what we face everyday... you still having that pure and golden heart as said below is the most amazing thing! I am sooo proud of you.. I already look up to you (lil cuz) lol

keep up the awesome work!
Don't ever change.

Lindsey, this is an amazing poem. I see two things clearly. An incredible talent for poetic expression and a heart pure and innocent as the driven snow. As one of the reviewers noted below, the line where you are in the audience because everyone needs someone to clap is nothing short of golden. Your poem is filled with gems of wisdom that few your age possess. No need to hurry. You've already arrived. :-)

"Always the one in the audience cause everyone needs a friend to clap for them"
I really like the way this line feels and how the overall piece is so innocent yet mature.
Keep up the good work I look forward to reading all of your stuff!

Love the lyric feel and the beauty of this piece! Such a wonderful notion in a world so filled with doubt and fear... Your words are like a city set on a hill lighting the way!
