Fondled feet step onto the floor Each shoes dirty but loved is placed next to her She raps each blister and scar Her shoe forms perfectly to her tired foot making it new The ribbons fall into place and that foot is ready As a pattern the other shoe flies on gracefuly Standing she stretches her long muscular legs She pulls her long brown locks up into a tight bun Finally ready she looks up at her pale reclection all around her Tights and leotard formed to her bones She closes her eyes and the musics play in her mind Step Turn Balance Each move flows into place Each step is not heard Sweat drips off her brow and to the floor Dancing this dance is easier than breathing She lands her last move and places herself in the middle of the floor Opening her eyes again she sees herself in the mirrors She smiles as she sees who she is A dancer
