Walk through the door
At Young People’s Centre
To be greeted by a friendly face
Could these people help me
Happy and smiling working together
Please take me into your group I say
Reception is the role I will be given
On a Thursday at eleven
Join in the activities if you want
Ever cautious I say No, let me see how things go
Come on they say you will not be judged
Together we will get you through
First a talk with a volunteer
Round the building I am taken
Interested in the things I see
Excited I say this is the place for me
Never look back, just look ahead
Doing something positive instead of crying
Sorry it is only on one day of the week
