The Dancing Book

So I have the opportunity to participate in the Miss Sevier County Pageant this weekend.  My talent is poetry writing so I am gonna do a poetry reading....with some Flare to make it interesting.  This is the poem I have pieced together for saturday night.....i just have to memorize it now. :) oh fun!!

The Dancing Book

Dancing away

I create my book

the book of my world

as my feet move 

on a never ending trend

my soul leaps and falls

 with painted emotions

that paint my book

with the tears that fly from my eyes

and slowly, ever so slowly

i see the pages begin to close

to close in on me

and as the book captures my soul

I YELL out in despair

as my never ending dance

comes to a pause as 

 I challenge myself to walk

into the unknown and to take a chance

to become someone besides myself

my tears trail down

to land upon the mirrored floor

to leave pools of paint 

as i rewrite my life

i hold still while

the book of my world

begins to fail

and soon becomes
nothing more than a bitter tale

yet as it fails
and begins to crumble in my hands

i reach up

to catch a fallen star

and i watch 

as it slowly ever so slowly
forms the book of gold

as i then burn

my book of mold
