Flutter

A fluttering in my stomach

Stomach

A signal telling it to stop churning from my brain

Brain

An image flashing of me failing in front of a crowd

Crowd

A sound a silence waiting for me to come onto the stage

Stage

A place that frightens me

Stage

A place that excites me

Me

A girl who’s ready to sing but needs a push

Push

A gentle nudge that I receive out to the microphone

Microphone

An amplifying object that I cling to so frightened

Fear

An emotion I feel but do not let stop me

Me

A girl who is now the only one in the room

Room

A place once so full but now is empty

Empty

A feeling of hollowness I do not possess 

Possess

A talent I have; I’m about to sing

Sing

An ability I fear, but that makes me feel alive

Alive

A rush I get when I feel the warmth

Warmth

A kind hug from a single spotlight

Spotlight

A thing that I crave
