Twirl on your toes
Jump above your head
Dance across the floor
Leap into the light
Don't fear the fight
Blue and green wage war
On the god rays of sun
As pink twirls above white
Twirl, twirl on the stage, light as air
Satin cages that hide the despair
Scars and Blisters causing pain
Of a dreams that will soon wain
Take off those satin cages and breathe
The lemon grass scent belonged to her pecan tinted skin.
Her stare soft but filled with a pinch of fear.
When the breeze roared and fell on us heavy like a brick.

Dancing on a cobble stone street
Barefoot in the sunlight

The bun upon my head,
Sleek and aerodynamic.
They may think my style is a fad,
Changing and passing with time.
Though It's classic,
Pure and genuine.
I'm behind the stage waiting for the curtain count.........
I am in first position,
I am eager, but I'm having a bad disposition.
Everyone is up on toe.
All eyes are in a row.
I'm behind the stage waiting for the curtain count.........
I am in first position,
I am eager, but I'm having a bad disposition.
Everyone is up on toe.
All eyes are in a row.
New ballet shoes,
from many to choose.
To help me dance,
I knew at first glance.
The pair I wanted, I saw,
Sitting sweetly on the shelf without a flaw.
At that moment outcame the ballerina in me,
La la tu tu tu to ri pu ti tu
Le Le Le is si fu
La la tu tu tu to ri pu ti tuLa la la si fu
Tu to ri tu ru fu LE Te lo ri si fuTu to ri tu ru fu leTA lo ri fu

A glass ballerina
Sits on the ground. Her
Arms form a loop
Above her head. Her face
Is raised towards the sky,
Watching the world above.
Light sparkles off her
Transparent body and creates
