They became my family.
My new big dramatic family.
We sing and dance and act.
It was fun, but I didn't belong.

I couldn't sing or dance or act,
but I wanted to be one of them,
to be part of the family.
To belong.

At the same time,
I wanted to see my family shine.
To reach new heights with their talents,
the talents that I did not have.

It's ironic really,
the way I fit now,
I'm part of a big puzzle,
yet I'm such a little part.

I am so little,
but I feel so loved
and I try my best to return the love I receive.
That's all I really wanted.

Sometimes I still wish that I was a bigger part,
but I can wait a little longer.
I can do it for them,
my big dramatic family.

I still do not sing or dance or act,
but I do see my new family shine.
I make them shine,
I am their light.
