Music Box
Ballerina prisoner figurine
Such beauty locked away
Only dances
When she sees the light of day
But, in my mind
Her twirls are reminiscent
Of forgotten memories, round and round
Stirring music weighs
So, I hide her still
Under key
And silence
Hoping she is forgiving
Until a fondness of providence is found
That soon soul will awaken
Her gracefulness hopes of ironies
O' may she dance her way back among my living
