Spotlight, My Calling

Writer's picture: Kalpana SharmaKalpana Sharma


The spotlight is calling out my name, I feel that’s where I belong.

My heart shares the feeling while my mind fights strong.

The path seems difficult, it’s the road not taken.

Playing it safe has been the thought for so long.


I yearn for a challenge, a passion, and the sweet pain.

I crave for the spotlight yet am afraid to cross the lane.

I fear the repercussions, it’s terrifying to step out of my comfort zone.

The risk is worth it but what if my efforts go in vain.


Each day is a struggle, a battle between the heart and mind.

The confusion that prevails, puts the opponents in a bind.

It’s the fear, the root cause of all the conundrums combined.

I wonder if it’s my instinct sending a message or just my conscience pushing me behind.


I find my solace in the spotlight.

My heart is free when I take the flight.

For a moment everything seems clear

And then the lights go out, bringing the reality in sight.
