She’s half little gymnast

 She’s half little gymnast

half princess

one minute she’s flipping off the couch
doing tiny jumps like her feet can’t stay still
turning my living room into her own little arena

landing crooked
then clapping for herself
like she just won something

the next
she’s spinning in circles
holding the edges of her dress
like she’s in a world softer than this one

like there’s music only she can hear

she’s scraped knees
and glitter trails

fearless enough to fall
soft enough to still believe

and i won’t ask her to pick one

because girls like her
were never meant to
