and I sang

Today is the day. I need to do this. I take a deep breath and I start walking towards the stage. I walk up the stairs. I need to overcome my fears to win this battle. No, not a battle with other candidates, but a battle with myself. My anxiety level raises, my heart is pounding, the audience is screaming my name. I'm nervous, so nervous. I inhale and exhale once again and I walk to the middle of the stage, where the microphone is. The crowd fades away.

'I can do it' I say to myself.
I closed my eyes and focused on the music coming out of the speakers behind me, the spotlight finding me and creating a shadow behind me. I feel the vibrations through the ground. I open my eyes and I sang. I sang with my whole heart.
'I am doing it!' I said to myself. I felt the low bass, the high-pitched keys of the piano, and the jolly sound of the ukelele deep in my stomach. I was well aware of my surroundings, feeling every little thing that happened at the moment. I understood every single lyric. I sung the last sentence and relaxed, that is what my insecurities needed. A happy crowd, because of me.
