Young Inside

February 29, 2016 by Emily Dill 1 Comment

My body is ancient
My skin, paper
But when I dream
I take off my age like a jacket
And dance once more

    LOVE THIS! Since I first read this poem, I have often thought of the line, “I take off my age like a jacket..” that’s beautiful, poetic, and has served me well. I do believe I’ll dance on!
