Showtime!

A moment I have been 
waiting for,
a moment I have 
looked forward to 
for months,
is here,
and now that the day
has come,
I have endless streams
of butterflies swarming 
my stomach.
When I dance in 
the studio,
in a place where
I feel comfortable 
and alright with making mistakes,
my nerves are somewhat easy to control.
But, 
on stage,
with lights shining from every possible direction,
my fear is hard to let go of. 
And so,
as I sit here writing,
I am telling myself to 
stop thinking about things
I could do wrong,
but the things that could go 
really well.
