Breaking down barriers defined by races Each step moves to the beat of my heart Crossing lines so that one day they can be erased Unchoreographed- its free form- my part My song, full of life, is moving in my veins Head held up high- I will not fall Refusing to follow- instead I'm the first to lead Building bridges to avoid a wall 'What [race] are you?' is the common language I twist and turn- arms like a halo above my head All I say is 'Human'- who cares who thinks I'm a b**** A being of movement-traveling where no one goes Bending back and leaping forward feeling the beat I'm a white girl who doesn't care whether she can dance Hips forward , circling forward- I barely move my feet If I have to sit with my kind- then I'll just have to stand Questioning the values that everyone seems to stick by I can't be off beat because I'm in sync with my own tune if stereotypes define the way we act-I refuse to comply Smiling to be alive though everyone says I move too soon People don't understand because they can't hear the music Set me up to fail and I promise you -nothing will stop me wrong steps in the wrong order but it all feels so right Try to limit what I can do and it'll shock you who I can be! *I thought I put this up but I gues snot- I know I tried but if it shows up twice- someone message me and wanna let me know? And then I'll edit and put something else in |

If you have a chance would you look at goodbye by me? I'd really like to know your thoughts. |

"My song, full of life, is moving in my veins" after reading this poem my mind kept wandering back to this line and I cant help but feel it is something I will find impactful and memorable. It really related all the points and mood you addressed and think about how it relates to life. I look forward to reading more of your poetry. (: -Scott Vukelic |
