You Believe In Me Poem by chantelle ribeiro

You believe in me
It means more than the stars
I smile in my heart
as you push me to succeed
push me to the front of the crowd
holding me on your shoulders
up on a pedestal I sit stunned
the view dazzling and frightening
yet I feel safe
as you brag with me
I feel loved and part of you
something I never knew I could be
It is overwhelming
Crazy
making me delirious with love
with hope
with gratitude
For I am still me
but that seems to please you
