Me

I stand with fear. Examining 
the motionless crowd. Not a 
baby cries nor a person sneeze. 
All eyes are on me.  For time 
has stopped. And here I sit. 
Just a motionless lock. Oh what 
I would do for a clean slate. To 
put me back at the lake. 

A light shines down. My burden 
lifted. From now on I am free to 
be
ME
