The Dancer

Untamed storm on her face -
the rain gentle on her bare skin -
she dances on a knife edge
between joy, hope, fear, sadness -
always moving between places -
a true gypsy of life
as she looks for something the best she can-
hoping against hope that she can find what she is looking for...

yet fears what it is and what it will cost her-
every thing has its price..

around people
yet still so very much alone -
few people she talks to,
even less will see her true pain
and fear that she hides the best she can -
needing help and support
yet not knowing how to ask -
not being able to trust the few people
that try after being let down / hurt by so many others in her past -

so much of her past is unknown/a mystery to her... -
so many questions she has
yet so few answers that she knows with her past -
known by many
yet very few ever can really know her and her reasons..
 
Yet she still dances on in the gentle falling rain.

A little about this

Hi everyone - this is the first story for me on here (please be gentle - I hope I done it the right way? : ) and is about some of the things in my life at this point in time and is me trying to put my thoughts down in words as I have been going through some rough/dark times lately

Dance with us Gypsy Girl

You don't need to dance alone. Look at the many members on this site and the length of time it has operated. Don't be frightened to share your experiences, thoughts and concerns that can be done directly or in stories and you can make contact with others who have all types of their own life experience.

"yet fears what it is and what it will cost her- every thing has its price.."

Gripping. Outstanding. Excellent. Heartbreaking and sort of familiar.
