I'm Dancing as Fast as I Can





And I'm dancing as fast as I can
Trying to live up to standards
That only exist in my head
Out run and out scream
My insanity
And I'm dancing as fast as I can

I'm dancing as fast as I can
And the faster I go
Makes it harder to know
That my problems will never be dead
I'm  Attempting Escape
From reality
So I'm dancing as fast as I can

No more you, no more me
Just souls and their dreams
So let us dance as fast as we can








Author notes

There's sound to it. It simply sounds better, and makes more sense, than just reading it.

    I just reread this and I dont think I did this poem justice with my comment.
    This poem is too good for my usual words.
    You are a little twisted, but it comes out great in your poems and thats something that I can relate to.
    "Trying to live up to standards
    That only exist in my head
    Out run and out scream
    My insanity"
    This is my favorite part of the poem.
    Its like a poem in itself.
    So decriptive and I don'tknow how to explain it, but it makes you feel.
    Not feel anything extrordinary, but just...feel.
    Which is something I find a lot of poems aren't able to do like they used to.
    Great job Stef.
    Not only am I bookmarking it, but I'm printing it out.
    Wish I could applaud more than once.
