Ballerina

even a ballerina gets up again after she falls...

i want to show her light
but you don't force the cocoon to open
before its time
she's 5'2 and lithe and she always draws
everyone in the room to her
i want to nurture her like a flame
let it burn and
she gets up again
i won't force the cocoon to open
before it's time
i'll just wait and appreciate
her light
