You make me wonder,
You make me think,
Could i ever achieve my dream?
Days of hard work,
Perspiration and determination,
You say its not worth it to me.
Why should i try.
Why do i stay?
Because i think i can.
Plies and tutus,
Toes shoes and Bruises,
A dancer is who i am.
I'm done trying,
I'll give you proof,
Not matter how hard it'll be.
my life,
Not yours,
Dancing is me.
