Desperation Beneath

She danced.

Under the bright lights,

She spun.

She flitted,

Here and there.

She enthralled.

She flew.

Like a cloud,

She floated

She enchanted.

And as the curtains closed,

She changed.

Face pale.

Eyes desperate.

A lone figure.

Dark emptiness.

Everywhere.

No escape.

No strength.

No more tears.

No hope left.

So weary,

Decision made.

Time to go.

Sighing quietly.

She lay down.

And slipped away entirely.
