Dancing Away…..🌸

swaying
her body
along the tune
looking
godly
an artist’s muse.

beneath
her feet
a splintered floor
in sweet
dreams
a velvet door.

breaking
inside
feeling insane
shaking
outside
to soothe the pain.

postures
sliding
fluidly to another
worries
enveloping
like a black smother.

counting
beats
she felt in her heart
dancing
greets
a sad form of art.

  2. Oh I love dance. The swaying of a breeze in a sultry sea! It conveys the whole body, soul and mind. You capture an essence of the art form beautifully in your poem. 🥰❤️🎶
