MY BEING

Whiles I speak hoping to express my self
My words surpasses boundaries
Exposing me to the lamplight

I write hoping to flaunt my talent ; and
Whiles I write hiding behind the curtains
My skill exposes me to the lamplight

Whiles I sing hoping to express my passion
My singing exposes me skills
Bringing me to the lamplight

The lamplight is a den
Sheltering the chameleon
Once in a million

The lamplight is my horror
And why I hedge on ;
Fighting to disavow

Yet, my skill is my being
And my being is my skill
And my being is in the lamplight

And there I must be
