On Pointe
By Eloise S
Published 23 August 2017
The shape of my future,
Though made up of pain,
Working so hard,
When I have to train,
The softest, silkiest, satin,
Pink like marshmallows,
To get to my dream,
I will dance on my toes,
Tomorrow will come,
Still more up on pointe again,
To the beat of the drum,
I will dance my way in.
