Focused
Turn, leap, jump, and fly all the things
I think about at night.
Whenever I dance I get this feeling
Inside.
In any case
Though I think about it I dream
About it…can’t live without it.
No matter where I am at or what
I’m doing there is always that one thing
That’s on my mind.
I admit without shame I can’t focus
In class because all I can think about
Is this life of dance.
Which causes me to drift off
And wish I could lift off.
Drift off as if
A balloon is flying in the air.
What’s worse is I just want to graduate.
So I can live the life and DREAM
Of a professional dancer.
But, I don’t want to talk I would rather walk;
Walk across that stage let alone
Dance across that stage.
Now in fact I have to pay attention
In class in order to get pass.
I feel like I am almost there
With just ONE jump in the air.
