dance

i had to use pictures for this one, sorry if they are big compared to the words c': something i've wanted to say for a while.

pull my shoes on

they feel so right

now my heart 

finally feels light

there is a side of me

i don't let just anyone see

it comes alive

when my feet lift off the ground

and i start to fly

dancing is my escape

from the real world

it's a scary place out there

no one makes it out alive

and i'm crying and screaming inside

why does nobody listen

something inside of me

is set free

whenever i am left alone

behind closed doors

i lift off my toes

twirling and prancing

a picture paints a thousand words

this is a picture that you'll never see

there is no other way

dancing is my natural high

gotta stay up high

head in the clouds

can't see anything else

i don't feel the pain

all my tears that i keep hidden inside my eyes

flow so freely through my movements

the burning rage i hide within

and all the times i've held it in

are unleashed with no mercy

no sad smile, no "i'm sorry"

lift off from the ground

suddenly i'm numb

put the music on

alone i'm someone else

in another place

with a different face

dancing sets me free

A fine write hana ,I think you love dance. I can feel that because I love to sing. Whenever I wish to escape my problems, I just sing out loud. Anyway your poem was nice. I enjoyed it.

The pictures fit really well I think it's honestly better with them. I totally get that feeling of freedom and the different character when you're doing something you are passionate about "in your case; dancing", and you saved the best until last.
