I want to sing alone



This morning we were singing together
nobody knew I was the true leader
the song was about set free an slave
I was so happy
I wish you were singing with me,
even you were sitting there

    I absolutely loved reading your "I want to sing alone" poem! The way you expressed your joy about being the true leader of the song was truly contagious. It's evident that your passion for music shines through in your writing, and it's inspiring to read such uplifting and positive words.

    That being said, I think it would be great for you to expand even further on the emotions and feelings you experienced in that moment of solo singing. Perhaps you could delve more into the narrative of the slave song you were singing, or express how it made you feel to share your voice with others and to lead them in such a powerful melody. Additionally, I think adding some descriptive language or metaphors could bring your poem even more to life.

    Overall, I think your "I want to sing alone" poem is a wonderful celebration of self-expression and musical freedom. Keep up the fantastic work, and continue to share your beautiful words with the world!
