First Steps

I looked out to the crowd, hopeful
yet weighed down
by the love of the folk in the room
First steps
Some people didn’t even know, slow-ful
but they’ll catch up
to the love I’m finally showing MYself
First steps
It’s attainable the dream go full
forward motion
Acceleration like death is chasing
First steps
You’re allowed to SHINE and know full
Permission granted
Redeem that time
Take your first steps
