Ballerina

Sweet songs of careless liberty
As the sea reaches farther than the eye can see,
Rests a place alone for us and we.

Captured in a fragile cage of glass,
Reflecting all that will ever pass
Lies a small little lass.

As music plays what’s increasingly crass,
She dances and giggles and laughs
With the reflections of the past.

And so she will stay this way,
For an eternity to this song she will sway.
Keep with her your heart and treasures locked away,
And with her innocence, keep the demons at bay.
