Was


Was

What I was 
Is not what I am
Nor, shall I ever be again I would hope
  A big gulp full of Pepsi and Rum
Getting primed
Let's have some fun
I stair at the glass as we are all lined up
Painting on a smile
Sparkle around my eyes
Curls in my hair
Breathe 
First layer
Second layer 
Third layer
Breathe
On go the heals
On goes the glitter
Down go the lights
The music begins
Breathe
One step
Two step
Grab and spin
Breathe
Third layer
Second layer
Hit the floor
Breathe
Prowl like a lioness
I see your eyes
Wanting
Waiting
You see me
But you don't SEE me
Heart pounding
I slowly rise
Quickly bend
My hands glide from ankles
Slowly up my legs
Across my tummy
Up my chest and neck 
Through my hair
And extend 
Breathe
Curve left
Curve right
Money flies
Falling like rain
Love the dance
But not the reason
Your the ones 
I'm here for pleasing 
You may have the outer shell
But the inside is not for sale
Three pounding melodies from beginning to end
Then off with the lights and my story ends.
