Maybe if I pretend to be <br />Someone else instead of me, <br />I won’t feel like I want to hide, <br />Or feel the nerves deep inside. <br /> <br />Maybe if I’m able to put on an act, <br />I’ll feel the confidence which I lack. <br />As long as I’m really well prepared, <br />I’ll look as though I’m not too scared. <br /> <br />I’ll look like I’m a star in the making, <br />When deep inside, I’m really shaking. <br />I’ll stand up on stage like my heroine, <br />And show them that I can really sing. <br /> <br />I’ll be someone else just for a while, <br />And make my entrance with a smile. <br />I’ll sing out my song nice and loud, <br />And make myself feel really proud.<br /><br />Angela Wybrow<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/someone-else-18/
