I'm not sure if this is the intent, but a circular stage to me implies more of a strip club dancer than a ballet dancer, but that doesn't fit the rest of the poem.Overall, I like the imagry of everything fading into the darkness as the viewer is captivated by the dancer.
Her style flawless,
she becomes the sparkle as the audience fades.
Slowly I become attractively restless Even with the explanation, this doesn't seem to translate right for me. I'm picturing the viewer fidgetting in such a way that makes him attractive?
as my fear of expression wanes.
I have to hold on to this moment of moving beauty.
I cannot afford to darkle, I had to look this word up. Seems like a stretch to rhyme with sparkle, even though the poem is not a rhyme. Maybe replace with a simpler word like lose.
So I hold my breath to soundly watch the beautiful dancer.
She is so beautiful and feminine
yet I seem to capture the masculine execution of her dance,
she is a Perfect Muse, expressing her poetry in Dance
