The Dancer

Her movements are graceful.
She dances with ease.
Her feet seem to never touch the ground.
She appears to be floating,
Floating above the stage.

She is so beautiful
People hold their breath.
She tells the story of love
With every movement of her body.

Her body moves with grace.
The story unfolds
With every turn and jump.

Soon her body is caught up in the sadness,
The sadness of her loss.
Her body seems to wilt to the floor
Much like a petal off a dead rose.
The curtain falls and the story has ended.
