Because this is it.
I've got the light aimed down on me,
Got the eyes of the crowd-
Got the beat of the band;
The attention of those in the bannered stand.
I've captivated the onlookers,
Saw them stare-
I'm in the spotlight.
I'm in the circle;
Because this is it.
This is it-
I'm in control,
Holding time in the palms of my hands.
No sweat rolls between my fingers,
My forehead is dry, devoid of droplets-
I've no need for worry.
I've brought them here,
Far and wide;
I've been urged on,
I've done the tide.
The world's mine to conquer,
The drum mine to dance to.
Because this is it.
See them gaze in utmost wonder,
See a child watch with evident envy.
No one's going to take it away-
Because this is it.
This is my time,
My moment of glory,
My moment of fame, of cheers.
Time ticks by,
A subtle sound.
Yet it is nonexistent.
There's only me and the band,
Only me and the crowd.
Only me and the applaud-
Because this is it.
Um. o_o Random spur of the moment writing. It fails, yeah, but I wanted to write. XD;
