Day Dreams
The smell of the freshly cleaned ( stage floor)
The crowd bursting out to cheer in a roar
The beads of water trickling down my forehead
Each step towards the stage as I head
The spotlight was on me; seemed like a 1000 volts
I was waiting for this second my entire life, I thought my heartbeat was at hold
The playback music started with a rock tone,
A chill went down in my backbone
I started to sing as calmly as I could
C’mon ! I was in front of 1000 people , mention I should.
I looked at the faces of my dear ones.
In their eyes I could see the proudness telling me “ you’re doing great , hon”
I looked at the faces of my dear patient audience
It was getting pretty intense; you know the ambience,
The song ended with a lovely note
“Did they like it “? – Was the only question of doubt,
The crowd busted out again to cheer in a roar.
Cheering loudly and saying – “Once more ! ”
