Don't Be Me.
I stood by the door everyday.
Watching everyone else discover themselves,
getting better,
showing great talents and skill.
They were good at it.
Being extraordinary.
Being impressive.
While I just watched,
the years rolled by and I kept watching.
Not taking a step to show the world what I could do,
I said I didn't want to impress because I didn't have to.
Deep down I was just scared.
I longed for the day I'd come out and wow them all
but I just stood everyday watching.
Don't be me.
Don't let fear stop you from living your dreams.
If you're passionate about it
Go for it.
You'll be glad you did.
You've got all it takes,
You've got all you need.
Don't listen to the doubt in your head.
Your fears may be valid
but they aren't stronger than you are.
Time goes by and before you know it,
Life is running out on you.
So live your dream and say no to self doubt.
I believe in you.
