Ballet shoes

Soft pink shoes glide gracefully
Across the polished ground
Elegantly I shift my body
From pose to pose I flow
Stuck forever in this moment
Like no time has passed at all
These shoes light my cold dark soul
Tormented by loss from long ago
Hair flowing silently as I turn
Light hearted now I feel
My ballet shoes now comfort me
Like no one could ever know.
