Of Beautiful Dancers

The dancers fly in elaborate steps
They seem but a blur
How is it that I'm to tell
Dancer from the dance?

The floor that began so high
Now through steps a hole
The blurs are dancers I believe
But I truly cannot tell

As without a mask removed
I cannot see what’s meant
Is the hole an accident
Or planned to force us down?

There is peace here to be found
But the dance it robs it all
As the dancers fly once again
I cannot see their beauty

How is it that I can lift
A dancer from the dance
When I cannot tell where the dancers end
And our horrid dance begins?

Alright explantion time!!! this is what was going through my head as I wrote this
The dancers are people (suprise suprise) in my life. I am one of them, now the question is how can I tell the dancer from the dance?
Whats the dance then? The dance is the games we play. Be it in love friendship, life ect ect. Thus "There is peace here to be found but the dance it robs it all"
I didn't realy do that justice but whatever you guys are poets, your good with all this hidden meaning crap.
