For Allison........
The dancing girl<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><O:P></O:P> <O:P></O:P> Little by little My spirit is grows Twisting and turning Like water it flows <O:P></O:P> Never give up <?:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /><ST1:STATE><ST1:PLACE>Ill</ST1:PLACE></ST1:STATE> never give in The dancing is beautiful She’ll cry till she’s in <O:P></O:P> The crowd is impressed And the seating it shows She dances and twirls The faster she goes <O:P></O:P> Bigger and bigger She knows that she’s won My seat becomes empty I stand till she’s done <O:P></O:P> A smile and a kick A laugh and a cry She flies to the moon But she is still shy <O:P></O:P> And I wonder where Or how this is true Watching her spinning I prayed that was you <O:P></O:P> You eyes and your smile These feelings grow fast The dancing girls pony Is lonely at last <O:P></O:P> But you understand As I open my mouth Laughing is normal And its running south <O:P></O:P> I sit with you love Different from rest Watching the dancing And smirking at best <O:P></O:P> <O:P></O:P> You are with me And I see the truth You’re eyes do the dancing I’m looking at you <O:P></O:P> You don’t need to jump You don’t need to spin You dance without moving Again and again <O:P></O:P> the dancing girl done Every person in stare The world can’t stop looking I don’t even care <O:P></O:P> You are beside me Not like that girl You don’t have to dance You don’t have to twirl <O:P></O:P> Your beauty is lonely And kept down within It comes out in smiles Again and again <O:P></O:P> You don’t need to wear it Its easily found Held in your caring Your feet on the ground <O:P></O:P> Your singing is silent More lovely than all The faster I run The harder I fall <O:P></O:P> My eyes set upon you Its here that ill stay Trapped in your beauty My favorite place <O:P></O:P> And when you touch me My armor it falls And all of the weakness The greatness it calls With you I am finally A bird who has wings You are my rock And you are my swing <O:P></O:P> The higher I go The safer I feel Love can’t be scary With you at the wheel <O:P></O:P> You hair on your shoulders the world only knew There’s nowhere that I’d rather be Than with you <O:P></O:P> And when you smile I finally fall My knees to the ground To you that I call <O:P></O:P> My love you are all My love you are there <ST1:STATE><ST1:PLACE>Ill</ST1:PLACE></ST1:STATE> hold you forever My first and last care <O:P></O:P> So the dancing girl dances But you stand alone The world on your shoulders Brighter than home <O:P></O:P> You’re beauty it shines Past makeup and clothes Its lies all around you It dances and flows <O:P></O:P> While the world is staring At the dancing girls show They line up behind her All waiting to go <O:P></O:P> But you play the music And dance on your own And they can not see you And I am alone <O:P></O:P> The only thing real The only one true My world has stopped turning And I look at you <O:P></O:P> Greatest dancer of all A gift from above I finally believe This thing they call loveEdited by: jclapt38

That's a beautiful poem, Jeff. [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]I especially like these lines... ...You don’t need to jump You don’t need to spin You dance without moving Again and again... ...Your singing is silent More lovely than all The faster I run The harder I fall... ...So the dancing girl dances But you stand alone The world on your shoulders Brighter than home... Lucky girl, that Allison! [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img] |
