Here to Play a Part

I am here.
As clear as the dawn that rises.
I am here.
Not hiding to be found.
Like some who peeking as they tremble...
In the hopes not to make a sound.
As they whimper and shake nervously,
While dishing dirt to pile pound per pound...
Upon someone's background.

I am 'here'.
Not to be chased from procrastination.
I am here.
Not to waste away in hesitation.
I am here to be for you as 'is'.
Not bait to make my argument.
Or fake a presence with no intention meant.
I am here to 'do',
Exclusively for you.

I am here to play a part with my heart to include.
And not to be used...
As a puppet strung confused from strings to diffuse!
