There Is No Such Thing As Pain

"Lean! Be the Leaning Tower of Pisa!"
awe still lingers from the first time
"Stand straight! Don't be a Pretzel!"
it's about me not all performance
"Faster! Beat a cheetah!"
I laugh at my failures and my falls
"Be graceful! The judges want control!"
my thoughts change in the best of way

My cold hard supporters,
they are my left and right
My Axel,
and my pivot
My bases of balance
My ice skates

They whisper
"There is no such thing as pain."
