Ballerina Exquisite

Ballerina,Ballerina

Had Hopes and Dreams

A "Perfect" Toy Doll

with Broken Seams

 

Ballerina,Ballerina

Anorexia haunted her for the

rest of her life

It hurt so much she

turned to the knife.

 

Ballerina, Ballerina

The cuts were small

Then they got deeper

My Ballerina started to fall

 

Ballerina,Ballerina

Her dance is perfect

No Flaws

But her

Nightmare Monster

Haunts with Claws

 

Ballerina, Ballerina

The shadow It haunts

Will Never leave

It stays to taunt

 

Ballerina,Ballerina

With Fairytale Scars

Who Dances with

Grace

Goes to far.

 

Anorexia Killed Her

Tore Her Apart

Made Her Weak

Then Broke Her Heart

 

Musicbox Melodies

With Flawless Beat

Carries A Tune

She would Never

Meet.

So sad. Made me feel sorry for this ballerina. But great poem!!

[Richard Anthony Goulart]

I think that your definition of amazing is not the same as my definition of amazing as this is just downright amazing. The truth in it is exquisite and the feelings are truly felt. An amazing job indeed.
