– StandAlone –
The times when I
am the least satisfied
are the times when I
most tend to find
the greater depths of myself
more clearly defined.
I want to stand up,
to stand out,
to stand alone above the crowd
and say without any doubt;
I belong here.
I am worthy of this place.
I am worthy of all the loving laureates
which you would bestow upon those
who have worked half as hard
to rise twice as high.
