Moonlight Dancer

Glowing in the light of darkness

The skin resonates its beautiful luster

Shadows fade her true flaws

Quietness accentuates her beauty

Moonlight dancer is her  name

For a moment in time she is perfect

Free of imperfections and ridicule

Able to be herself for a short time

Open heart and open arms

free of burdens hurt and pain

With no melody nor tempo

Moonlight dancer twirls

From the beat within her bones

And the words written in her feet

She dances as if tonight will end

And tomorrow will never begin
