If I Could
It all started out when I was quite small
And knew I wanted to be an actress.
For a while I was shy and reserved around all,
But then opened up in my high school classes.
I started out in my school's marching band
In the Colorguard, with no musical talent.
That was quickly corrected when I soon found
I could handle the flags with great balance
All four years in high school I have been in Colorguard
And even made my way to Guard Captain,
Each season was new, but I soon found my way
With other bands we competed and flattened.
For a while I thought Colorguard was my life
But then there was Theater class.
It was there I was able to express myself better
Not just with a flag and some brass.
Then on from there I broadened my life
With musicals, plays and home movies
My sister and I were two of a kind
Always comedies that made us look loony.
I'd now like to take my dreams drastically further
With college and then Hollywood
I want to bring my family laughs and good fame
And become an actress if I could.
