'keep your hair in a bun, you must have fun,
up on your toes, perfectly ironed clothes,
slippers must always be laced, keep a smile on your face'
but one day her hair fell from the bun,
a wrinkle formed in her clothes,
the slippers were forever unlaced
and she wore a frown on her face,
old age came too fast.
Being a ballerina must be so sad...so much beauty but with an expiration date, at least in terms of the way you're viewed in the business.
