Her Curtain Falls
Location
The curtains fall, their breaths' are hushed
She enters the stage, cheeks a'flushed
She's captured the moment, they are rapt attent
On the edge of their seats, even Lord Gent
Her gown billows, waves upon fabric
Her feet are lively, enthralled; a maverick
She follows no rhyme, no rhythm, no reason
A dance of its own, a crime, a treason
The crowd all stands, shirttals in tow
the applause overwhelming, ending the show
She takes her last bow, showered in petals and tears
She closes her eyes, whispers goodbye to her peers
She swirls off the stage, her final hurrah
Too soon forgotten, Her fatal flaw
