"Dream big, work hard, live free" ~Kalianah Wogoman


I feel like I’m the kid in the corner

Waiting for my hero or savior
I feel like no one is around to hear me scream
Because they pass by like a moving stream
I feel discomfort when I sing
Because a can hear laughter surrounding me
My heart races when I'm called upon
Because I always feel that I will be wrong
Years have passed being the same
Hoping the next one will keep me sane
I don’t want to feel like the kid in the corner
I want to shine brighter and brighter as I get older
Insecurity haunts my dreams
Forcing my insides to scream
As I get older my insecurities disappear
I am breaking free as I reappear.
