Once again
I've found my way
Like many lonely nights before
To my private place of solace
On this worn dance floor
The flawless end to day
As I open the door very quietly
Lights are still dimmed low
Mirrored walls in faint reflection
Images that soon will connect me
To the sweet poetry of dance I know
My anticipation of abandonment grows
I turn up the lights and start the music
Visions of the enchanting movements
My mind and body knows so well
Within the openness of my studio
It's where I come to be inside
To release emotions I hide
This place is my presidio'
Through the art of dance
So many stories I can tell
Using my body as the pen
And music as the paper
Combining like vapor
I know them so well
In their peace I dwell
Feeling the music
Releasing the tensions
Slow and rhythmic
Filling my senses
Muscles stretched and warm
Take me to the heights I love
And push me for perfect form
It's the movement I dream of
The freedom of dance I adore
Moving me across the floor
Releasing emotions and sorrow
Dance like poetry gives strength
To bravely face my tomorrow and
How I rejoice in forgetting
Once more
