So many choices but

Integrate one only.

Leave behind tactics.

Everlasting courage to

Needle stars and

Change forever.

Even pleading

Drives the road.

Tween Elizabeth has been struggling to fit in ballet class for the past six months due to scoliosis. Before she knew it, quitting suddenly became much more difficult through post-ballet life thoughts along with friends. Will she end up risking her reputation of "Graceful Ballerina" and take up a whole new version of herself, or will she find a way to fit in?

Through the poetry collection, Elizabeth examines themes of belonging, desires, and fitting in.

Being her normal self,

Engulfing Elizabeth into scoliosis material

Never had she thought

This would occur.

Pathetic, she believes

Albeit continues,

This is her life

Have to keep going but not sure how.
