What is Stage Fright?

When everything around you seems like it’s spinning very fast

When your hands start to sweat from the burning heat

When people are staring at you and you’re afraid to mess up

When you begin to want to give up and go home

Where Were You?

One night,

You were in

Your bed and

Fell asleep.

All you

Saw for a

While was

Pitch black.

Then,

You got out of

Your bed and

Thought you were

Awake.

You walked and

Walked continuously,

Trying to find

Your parents.

Nobody was in

The house,

Just yourself

And the

Darkness.

Finally,

You found something.

What was it?

Where were you?

Were you at

Home?

What was going

On?

Where was

Everyone?

What you found

Was the

Front door.

You turned the

Doorknob,

Your heart

Pumping.

As you slowly

Opened the

Door,

It made a

Scary sound.

You opened

Your eyes

Wide open.

There it was…

Pitch black.

Were you in

The game,

” Zuthera?”

You knew it

Couldn’t be.

You walked

And walked

And saw…

Nothing.

Why was there

So much

Confusion?

Where were you?

You finally

Saw something.

What was it?

You walked

Further and saw

A tree.

There it was…

The wilderness.

All there was were

Trees,

The darkness,

Nature,

And yourself.

There wasn’t a

Sight of

Animals at all.

You sat on a

Large rock near a

Pond.

All of a sudden,

You heard a

Loud noise.

It was your

Alarm clock.

What was going on

The entire time?

It was all a

Dream.

Not only that,

But a dream

About where you

Longed to be…

The wilderness.

Taking care of her children

I am one of her children

Waiting to give my mom something she’ll be proud of

To make her smile and love me more

in her bedroom.

She had nothing else to do.
