twirl in the light tiny dancer

tiny dancer,

tiny dancer

no match to quicksand

wisdom behind green eyes,

always the leader of the band

mirror mirror on the wall

she will look to you when she falls

cadillac to concrete

designer shades that effortly conceal,

another surface bleed

left to heal

empty square feet

full of new beginnings

perseverant armor

careful to lower her shield,

so back home her children stay grinning

tragedy in the form of a storm

through the down pouring rain,

her gentle heart remains untorn

flickering candles beside the bed,

intrusive thoughts in her head

spin tiny dancer,

twirl in the night

for you know too,

this is just another plight

the charred floor remains,

your magnificent stage

an exotic bird

no longer in a cage

spin tiny dancer,

remember you are no match to quicksand

more a resemblance

of an exquisite soul

an incredibly profound brand
