A field of dandelions

Walking through a field of dandelions

Clinging to my wish,

Clutched in one hand,

Wondering what on earth

I could possibly ask this field of dandelions for.

 

Should I ask

For my audition to go well?

Or something personal like

I hope my friends don't hate me by the end of this year?

Or should I ask

For good grades

Or maybe

For next year to

Not suck?

 

All the questions

Echo around my brain

As I stand among the flowers

In this field of dandelions,

Clinging to my wish.

  • When

    When I find

    That maybe I don't love it anymore -

    When I lost the spark

    When I realized

    I don't really care

    If I make it,

    Or don't -

    It scares me.

    I wander around at practice,

  • Conductor

    He raises his hands,

    And as our cue,

    We begin our dance -

    Instruments,

    Communicating,

    It's like we can talk to each other

    Through the song.

     

    He claps his hands twice -

  • Bassline

    I feel the drumbeat.

    I feel the pulse of the music,

    Reverberating around my ears and brain,

    Twisting into my heart.

    I feel the bassline

    With each hit of the sound

    Pulsating your energy around you
