Living in 'the real'

Deep down on the inside of me

There is a woman
who wants to be free

To tap dance in the puddles
that linger after the rain

To cry when it hurts
and unmask my pain

To laugh out loud
until I can't stand it

And hold on to the moments
I once took for granted

And believe in a dream
no matter how big it may seem



Lord, help me be the 'real me'!
