When no one is watching

We remember how to play

How much we love to sing

How much fun dancing can be

And that music is best when it’s loudest

When no one is watching

We’re the world’s best comedian

Giving the most thought provoking TED talks

Making up noises that spark joy

Just to fill the silence

When no one is watching

We get nostalgic about small things

Drop the mask and let tears flow

Pick at blemishes and scabs

We flex and poke and prod

And make a silly face

Remembering who we are

When no one is watching

We breath a sigh of relief

Let ourselves just be ourselves

Exist without grief

Feel at peace with all we are

And enjoy the home that is ourself.
