Ballet Dancer

In my own world,
I can just be me.
Opening these doors,
Dance is the key.
 
Escape from my fears
is what I look for,
When I get done
And walk through the door.
 
With nobody but myself
I’m free to express
my own feelings
and sort out my mess.
 
I don't always come
With fear or sorrow;
Sometimes I'm content
Looking to tomorrow.
 
Dance is my world,
Where I can be me;
Or be just anything
I want to be.
