Tingles in my stomach
Nerves of edge
Light-headed
The dance is tonight
No date
No friends to be with
Alone I will be
Will I be pretty enough?
Will I do my makeup right?
Nervous
Anxious
Panic has it's hands at my throat
Will I look ugly?
Fear deep in the pit of my stomach
I just want to be good enough
What if people laugh?
What if I fall or trip in my heels?
What if I mess up?
High school is so stressful
They'll all be watching me
Judging me
Their cruel eyes staring daggers into my back
Searching to find any mistakes
For any flaws
What if I got the wrong dress?
What will I do?

By the time you get this comment, Cynthia, your dance is either in full swing or already over. But this goes for any dance: Never worry about what others are thinking. Be yourself and be happy with yourself. That happiness will rub off on others! Somebody either likes you or does not like you, no matter what dress you are wearing.
Thank you and thankfully my dance isnt for another 6 more hours
As you read this message, your dance is over now, but you're still dancing.. you now realize that all you had feared really didn't exist. Your makeup was perfect, you were beautiful, you hit every beat, you thought you made a mistake but the mistake was trying to dance someone else's dance before it even started. When it started, you danced your dance perfectly. It was your dance, you were you.
You were the dancing queen darling!
🙂 thank you
Every step will speak of you and every move shall be a heart beat in someone's heart. Your grace will mesmorise your enemies and your true being shall glow more than the stars in the sky. Be happy my child. You are an eternal beauty and you will be blessed forever.
