The Emerald Sanctuary
by buttons

I am me

I have soared through the air
I have seen the pits of hell
I have made friends; broken hearts

I have been both scared and proud
I have cried tears
I have faced fear, yet I am still afraid

I have met famous people
I have slept under the stars
I have been in pain; I have caused pain

I have danced barefoot in a meadow
I have seen the city lights
I have held a baby bird, held a heart

I have felt the touch of love
I have spoke in front of hundreds
I have laughed from my mind and bled from my soul

I have flown a kite on a windy nite
I have made friends across the world
I have seen change; I am change

I have kept secrets in my heart
I have seen Broadway's magic
I have been hidden and uncovered

I have discovered the magic of words
I have felt the jab of loneliness
I have found myself; I have found me.
