Without Words
Miguel C.
-
This piece is called “without words”. This piece is very meaningful to me since it describes exactly how I feel about myself. In the past few years, hurdles and obstacles have entered my life in ways that I could’ve never expected. Even after I tried to get over these obstacles, guilt and fear still followed me. I imagine myself in a room full of mirrors - not knowing how to get out. Everywhere I went, these mirrors would follow me and every time I looked into one a memory would flash before me. I felt vulnerable and scared in my guilt and fear. This dance is about the feeling of being trapped, no where to go, no one to tell how I felt - and how I escaped that prison of mirror with the help of close friends and family.

Expressing myself through dance helps me stay in touch with how I feel and helps relieve tension that I may be feeling. I find dance as an outlet that I plug my feelings into. It helps me communicate my feelings in ways words cannot.
