The Lights Were So Bright

The lights were so bright,
They hurt my eyes.
For a minute I had the sensation,
That I was floating in a sea of faces,
All looking polite,
Some quite contrite,
Waiting for me to dance.

The music began,
The passion to flow,
Now this is just me and you now.
I tried to lock out the stares,
To concentrate on the rhythm.
I tried to show them all,
I knew how to dance.

But that was all,
Soon over
And I went back to my corner,
Ashamed at my performance,
Glad that it was over,
Knowing that tomorrow,
Ill be up on that stage again.

I dont care that much if they clap,
Although I love the applause,
I know that Im doing my best,
I know that I have time,
I know that I have the heart.
I know that this is only the start.

*Just a little poem about one really bad performance I had a little while ago. -I hope that you liked this even though it didnt rhyme very much..
