The silence in the room
Suddenly all eyes lie on me
The stares strangle the words out of my mouth
Whispers spread like wildfire
It’s hot and sweaty
Choke the paper to give the me words, but it won’t budge
Blurry vision forms
Runs down my cheek
My knees buckle, shake and bend
How am I supposed to do this in front of an audience, when I can’t even do it in front of my friends?

Lockets showcasing memories
that play like melodies
families with babies
pleasant ladies
all showing a story
where everybody was in their glory
Hanging from my neck
Showcasing a beautiful story
