For everyone else but me.
Scared to show myself.
Hiding in a prison ,
Built with my own hands.
So scared, of everything
But especially of myself.
Guarding my heart.
So afraid of dying,
Yet never even living.
A moment of truth.
A glimpse beyond these walls.
Suddenly my chains fall off
Clattering to the floor
Of a vanished cell.
I fill my lungs deeply
With the air of freedom.
Lifting my face to the sun,
The warmth floods my soul.
I sing, I shout, I dance.
