I'M Scared

Am I in a act of play,
did the clapper board come down
just as I looked away?

I see the crowd,
their eyes embedded,
Is this the nightmare,
that I've dreaded?

Standing alone
the spotlight screaming,
my hope in God, is,
That I'm just dreaming.

And Your hope within "God," is absolutely 'everything!!!~For as Christ said in John 16:33~"In the world you shall have trials and tribulations. But be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world...."~ And I would also recommend Matt: 28-30 dear Ann!:) This was a lovely little write of profoundly felt expression here!
