When I Dance by ErinBrenna

The sound of music fills the room,
Stretching from the hard floor to the glass mirrors on the wall.
Every muscle pulling tight, breathing fast and hard.
The world slips away, and your left with nothing at all.

The feeling of empty sooths you, as if you're floating on water.
You become what you dream, dancing how you feel your every emotion.
Suddenly you're on a cliff edge, hanging by a finger.
Then, your swimming miles underwater in the open endless ocean.

No one has ever given you the happiness you feel right now.
And no one could ever take this away.
You aren't just another girl, spinning on the ground,
You're a bird gliding through the clouds, only the sun in your way.

All the pain and tears just leave you.
It's like Heaven, so pure and free.
For a second your gone, somewhere beautiful and true.
And then the music stops, you snap back to reality, bowing on one knee...

I liked this one
I love to dance. I used to be a really good dancer and my grandpa helped me pay for classes and competitions. I almost went to state, i would have and he would have been so proud. But the day i won first for northern california is the day my grandfather got in a car crash. I no longer dance. This poem made me cry because i danced what i felt and how you discribed dancing in this poem is exactly how it is when i danced. Wonderful poem, it makes me want to dance again, but i cant.

lost for words.. hehe.. marvolous.. you have described something that i have wished to described for years. yet i feel more could be said.. since in a way it is differenct for eveyone. but true so true.. like heaven everything leaves.. and not just dancing like dirty or whatever but for me its walts, ballad, or anything soothing,, usually paformance art ^.^ hehe.. or like dancing in a slow rythmic way like in a trance.. heh..i think i got off topic.. good poem.. keep on writng :)
