A Land of Words, Rhythms, and Emotion - Keep Dancing

They’re staring at me, all of them;

I don’t care.

I keep dancing to the beat of the music;

Maybe I’m a little off,

But I don’t care.

My date stares at me in humiliation

And pity.

I ignore his condescending gaze

And keep on dancing,

Letting the music seep into my bones.

The girl who chases after him–

She’s staring too,

Glaring at me like a predator,

About to devour her prey,

With a slight, triumphant smile.

She could win;

She could take him;

I don’t care.

The way he’s staring at me,

She can have him.

A circle has been cleared around my flailing limbs,

A circle of people unwilling to be associated with me,

Or just too humiliated to be anywhere near me.

I don’t care,

Just keep dancing to the thrumming beat of the drum.877Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR89jVzJR8K
