THE NEW EXPERIENCE

Walked in, first thought, “oh my God,

this could be interesting.”

Shady characters around me.

Sunglasses, dark room, and me with a bad hair day.



I hear my name called. “Lynn, come on up here.”

Mic in hand I sang the words my heart knew.

Words like “I will survive, respect, not gon cry”.



I stood in that room tears rolling down my cheeks in my mind

as the words came out of my mouth.



In that moment it was my heart although the words came out of my mouth.

My heart was singing the songs.



My heart sang of being afraid, but surviving.

Of wanting a little respect.

Saying not gonna cry no tears no more because you were wrong.



My best friend brought me to the place where I could have my new experience. To know that pain is pain, music is music, and God has blessed me with a wonderful talent and way to let go of my pain while being me no matter where I am.

Author's Notes/Comments:
