Late Bloomer

I feared I would not fit
I’m not young and gorgeous
I just could not make it
One ought to be flawless
But somewhere inside me
There is this desire
I’ve tested and tried me
Can not put out the fire
I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer
I’m doubtful, uncertain
Afraid, quite unsure
I dropped the fire curtain
And followed the lure
I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer
Not all of us get a wake up call
Not all of us grab our chance
You don’t have to become 10 feet tall
Or have a whirwind romance
Listen to the voice inside
Know it isn’t all fantasy
If you haven’t truly tried
It will all be a fallacy
I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer
