#1 - Here I am

 

Alone together, Maria Kreyn, 2012 —

Ready, set, lights on.

Here I am.

“Do it again.”

The exercice is simple, though.

Audience in the dark.

One single spotlight.

Take one step forward,

Look at them,

And confidently say: “Here I am.”

Here I still am.

Not that I didn’t try, really.

A little bit every day

That’s what he teaches us.

When you want something in life,

You have to work at it

A little bit,

Every single day.

But they got that

Long before I did, right?

Make her disappear,

No brutality.

Just work on it,

A little bit

Every single day.

Here I am.

“Do it again.”

Do you think he sees it?

That there’s no one on stage,

No one is living inside this body anymore.

I’m a ghost now, nothing more.

 

The stars

Called through the window

That night,

And I almost answered: 

“Here I am”.
