CENTER STAGE

The Spotlight
Knowing who I am
Capable of doing
Assurance in knowing
Words assembled
Expressing out
Alone
But not beaten
Standing determined
Passed with no fail
Achieved
Totally destined
Being myself from within
Extending my purpose being a mission
Precision stance
Opportunity chance
Some say I don’t
I say I will
Doubt says I shouldn’t
I say I shall
I understand the reason
This is a need
There was that never
Had to be clever
Beyond standards
Overcoming fears
Thoughts and virtues
Issues that mounted
Lessons learned
Influences embraced
Effectiveness
Courage to explain
Happened in one segment
Center Stage
