The Dancer Dreams of acceptance To be loved and admired Visions of happiness Innocent eyes now tired Practicing routines Of seduction to a mirror Sedating the mind As the minutes draw nearer Lustful eyes watch Every move and fantasize A beaming happy smile A mask of a disguise Unfamiliar hands touching Fantasies of adoring lovers Dancing all exposed Not for a lover but for others Belief in the mind That money is all that’s needed To fill an empty heart Scorned and mistreated Silent cry behind the smile Empty dreams that’ll never be The dance continues on For anyone that wants to see  [This message has been edited by kat (edited 08-11-2000).] |

Very interesting subject matter, I don't think I've ever read a poem quite like it. I love being surprised by unexpected themes. Keep up the good work! Incidentally, I also enjoyed the icon at the end. Nice one.

SpitFire: Glad you liked it and thanks for responding!  Ian: I was trying to find a subject matter that I hadn't seen in any poems so far so I chose this one. I actually knew someone in that situation so it wasn't too hard to put it into words. Glad I surprised you and I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks! kat |

Kat, nice poem I liked almost hope and expectation in it, also the theme. Be well Kethry.< !signature--> "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- [This message has been edited by Kethry (edited 08-15-2000).] |
