Transform

You would sit on the sidelines
You were the silent wallflower
You were young and naive
you were nothing but a lump of potential talent

Then they adopted you
They taught you
laughed with you
Learned with you
Worked an played with you

The thrill of performance molded you
the confidence grew in you
the talent released from you
you emerged from your crumpled cocoon
slowly spread your wings,
and flew across the stage
