My Room, My Rules
Feet flying over carpet. Carpet turns to forest, forest turns to mountains, mountains turn to ocean. Jump, spin, turn. Ballerina move from long ago. Take off again. My room, my rules. No limits. Princess to Dragon, Dragon to Ninja, Ninja to Knight, Knight to Mage. My room, my rules. Jump, spin, fall. Get up again. Walk it off. Pain becomes inspiration, inspiration becomes dance. Insert myself into the stories. Fighter, lover, killer, baker. Impossible, improbable, me. Sharp turn, dodge the knife. Jump, fly. My room, my rules. No fear, no anger, no sadness. Joy, love, right. Dance for freedom, dance for joy, dance because I can. Bed, computer, read a chapter. Jump up, dance. Sick, dance. Morning, noon, night, dance. My room, my rules.
