I Just Dance

I learn the moves, step by step,
Practicing till there’s nothing left.
A spin, a slide, a pop, a pose,
Even when I trip my toes.

I mess up lots, but that’s okay,
I keep on going anyway.
My feet get sore, my arms might ache,
But dancing’s worth each small mistake.

Life feels like a giant maze,
I get lost in so many ways.
But when the beat begins to play,
The stress I carry fades away.

Some things come hard, some things feel slow,
But when I dance, I start to glow.
I may not always get things right,
But in that moment I feel light.

It isn’t easy, takes some fight,
But something in it feels so right.
I stumble, sweat, but then I thrive,
Because dancing makes me feel alive.
