Dances Poems - Poems about Dances

she who dances with fire
she does not walk— she ignites. in the dark cathedral of ash and echoes, she spins, a silhouette carved from the mouth of a flame, hips swaying like the last breath of a phoenix. her dress— not cloth, but the wind of burning wings, each thread crackling with a story that refused to be extinguished. arms flung skyward— not surrender, but invocation. the fire does not consume her. it...

Premium Member When fate blows out my candle and the flame dances like a ballerina at dusk
When fate blows out my candle and the flame dances like a ballerina at dusk, I will listen to the secret whispers of the wind, spinning tales of long ago, Neither prayers will halt this departure, nor tears will tame The ephemeral gesture of destiny that has secretly woven the web that now envelops me. I will dedicate an...

Premium Member Under the summer sky, in the simmering golden sun, my mind dances among the stars
Under the summer sky, in the simmering golden sun, my mind dances among the stars, Where memories melt into plays of light, dreams, and burning longings, On beaches where sand is a golden carpet, and the sea sings its eternal song, I can still feel the waves touching my feet, telling tales of unforgettable times. The salty air is...

Heart Rhythms
Who am I? I'm that star in the sky that remains when all the other stars have run away I'm the last raindrop that dances on the rooftop at the end of a stormy day I'm that leaf that clings to the tree when the other leaves have accepted their fate I'm the last second of that minute of that hour that urges the...

Premium Member In a universe of glass and steel, where fluorescent light dances on cold walls
In a universe of glass and steel, where fluorescent light dances on cold walls, We have lost ourselves, men of the age, caught in the trap of a paper dream, Where the tie becomes a noose, suffocating any impulse of freedom, And each day is an absurd play, performed under the gaze of relentless shadows. Here, in the cages...

Premium Member In a secret corner of the mind, where silence dances with shadows
In a secret corner of the mind, where silence dances with shadows, I lose myself in the simplicity of a moment that asks for nothing, just to be, letting dreams unravel like autumn leaves in a gentle breeze, without fear of absence, without the desire to arrive anywhere, for in the absence of desire, a vast field of freedom...

Premium Member In the penumbra of life, a choir of lost souls dances
In the penumbra of life, a choir of lost souls dances, Their ephemeral steps leave traces on the sands of passing time, Their dreams, like night butterflies, crash into closed windows, While the sea of existence churns under the moon, untouched by thoughts. The scent of regret floats in the air, heavy with unfulfilled promises, Their lives, like plastic flowers,...

Premium Member In the room where light dances through the curtains like a timid dream
In the room where light dances through the curtains like a timid dream, I wonder if friendships are not just dusty treasures on the shelves of forgetfulness, once shining like stars on a never-ending night, now just silent props in a theater abandoned by time. Beloved faces melt into the shadows of memories, old photographs in an album we no...
