The Dancer.
By Sienna Roos, St Mary’s School Ascot.
The lights go out. The spotlight is on me
As the music turns on I feel alive and free.
I flow to the lyrics with beauty and grace
Performing the choreography at a slow constant pace.
Then the music goes up to a faster speed
I feel like the music is all I really need.
I try to ignore the hundreds of faces;
Focused on my travel to different spaces.
The stage is my home and the audience is my family;
But when the music stopped life becomes reality.
The audience cheers and applauds me
This is who I am, this is where I need to be.
