Dance with a Fire in Your Heart

Today I wrote an acrostic poem, but instead of spelling out a word with the first letter of each line, I inserted a quote with the first word of each line. You can see the prompt I followed here. The quote is well known, but I'm not actually sure who said/wrote it because there were several different answers on Google.

Dance like no one's watching.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Sing like no one's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.

Dance with a Fire in Your Heart
By Candace Shultz

Dance with passion in the rain
Like there's a fire in your heart that
No one can put out but yourself.
One's own dream should not be quenched by those
Watching and waiting for you to fail.

Love every victory and even the failures.
Like that they bring you closer to your goal.
You've worked so hard to fan the flames.
Never let your fire go out even if the storms have
Been beating you down into embers. Don't let them
Hurt you forever. Rise up again.

Sing about your successes in all places,
Like in the shower alone or in a crowded street.
No matter if you're surrounded by people or if no
One's there, be proud of yourself and your dream.
Listening to your heart will bring you closer to the stars.

Live with joy in your heart and peace in your mind,
Like a steady flame that does not flicker.
It's only a matter of time before
Heaven fills your soul with satisfaction
On a dream achieved. We have only one time on
Earth. Let yourself dance, love, sing, and live.
