Learn Your Place

In the shadows where I stand,

Whispers of the heart,

Glimmers of the truth,

Yet I’m lost in the art.

Treading lightly on a fragile line,

I could burst, I could bloom, or be left behind.

Just another chapter in this tale untold,

But I learn to play it safe, and I learn to be bold.

But the weight of my presence

Can tip the scales,

So I cage my heart

When the silence fails.

Learn your place in people’s life,

So you don’t overplay your part.

A dance on the edge, it's a delicate fight,

Balancing dreams with a cautious heart.

I see the laughter, feel the light,

But sometimes it stings,

In the dead of night.

Like a whisper in the wind, I fade away,

Hoping they’ll remember the words I say.

But they don’t see the colors

That I hold inside,

Just a fading echo

Of a rising tide.

Learn your place in people’s life,

So you don’t overplay your part.

A dance on the edge, it's a delicate fight,

Balancing dreams with a cautious heart.

And sometimes I wonder, will the day come,

When they see the real me, not just a fleeting hum?

I’ll hold on to hope, I’ll cast my line,

In this ocean of souls, I’ll trust in the time.

Learn your place in people’s life,

So I sing this song, as I find my way,

In the hearts of the people, I’ll choose to stay.

With every note rising, I’ll learn to depart,

In this journey of life, I'll play my part.
