Your Dance

The mind closes

to fears of rejection,

dreams of a passionate time

that is your time,

as the world outside

dissolves the magic

of your spirit.

 

 

Self preservation demands

that you strut,

like a concrete warrior

along walkways

of an unnaturalness

that will never be you.

 

 

But the song hums so deeply within

that it won't forever be denied.

You can feel the intensity,

as it keeps curling

around your heart.

 

 

And the pain deepens,

constricting your heart,

but you can see the path

that is your freedom,

this canvas of vision.

 

 

One day

you finally realise

that your soul is dying

under the umbrella

of worldly expectations.

 

 

Let your soul

breathe once again

and your truth

will set you free.

 

 

This cry of awakening,

will release

chains of captivity.

The burden of constriction

will die

and you will arise,

like the phoenix,

from your own ashes

of mediocrity.

'What A Feeling' by Irene Cara

First, when there's nothing but a slow glowing dream
That your fear seems to hide deep inside your mind
All alone I have cried silent tears full of pride
In a world made of steel, made of stone

Well I hear the music, close my eyes, feel the rhythm
Wrap around, take a hold of my heart

[Chorus:]
What a feeling, bein's believin'
I can't have it all, now I'm dancin' for my life
Take your passion, and make it happen
Pictures come alive, you can dance right through your life

[Solo]

Now I hear the music, close my eyes, I am rhythm
In a flash it takes hold of my heart

[chorus (with ... "now I'm dancing through my life")]

What a feeling

What a feeling (I am music now), bein's believin' (I am rhythm now)
Pictures come alive, you can dance right through your life
What a feeling (I can really have it all)
What a feeling (Pictures come alive when I call)
I can have it all (I can really have it all)
Have it all (Pictures come alive when I call)
(call, call, call, call, what a feeling) I can have it all
(Bein's believin') bein's believin'
(Take your passion, make it happen) make it happen
(What a feeling) what a feeling... [to fade]
