She dances the dream of becoming a star,

She dances the dream of going far,

She dances to her name in the shiny lights,

She dances with the stars that shine bright,

She dances her dream of being a star,

She dances her dreams to take her far

It is something i wrote for spilled ink... It just a short poem to make you think. It was inspired by Michael  Jackson's Slave to the Rythm.

I really love the message in this poem of living your dreams. She's not just dreaming her dream...she's dancing it, she's LIVING it. Although your poem is short and sweet, it's also very powerful, it made an impression on me. It made me want to go out and live my dream...
