Dance
Strange eyes stare as look back
nervously heart beating
outrageously.
I close my eyes just for a pinch
second as i gain composer.
And the music comes into que
softly.
My inner thoughts tell i, my moment
is now dance like nobody is
watching.
I move left to right, right to left.
Moving my hips while I throw my
hands up.
Spinning in circles moving across
the stage with a steady eye contact
to my audience.
While they're watching my footwork
and i'm praying i dont lose my
footing.
Sweat dripping as i pour my heart
out on this stage only hopefully for
a great applaud.
So i dance, dance and dance like it's
nobody business.
Like i'm home in the mirror practing
for my big day, when the spot light
is shinning on me.
For once i'm the only star who shine
will be seen.
Expressing myself through these
turns and twists, letting go of
yesterday troubles.
Because when i dance, i dance the
only thing that matters in the world.
So as I spin, twist, move my hips
side to side, and wave my hands I'm
just doing what love the most
dance.
Dedicated to a friend of my Jasmyne
Clark, may your dreams come true.
