We were a waltzing marathon
Eternal box steps in the ballroom
In my dreams, we danced forever
I wore you like a cloak and
your skirts brushed against my ankles
with every twist and turn
My skin sings when I dance. Every inch is fire. Even behind my ears,
in-between my fingers, the tip of my nose
and bottom of my chin
When I dance I feel it all
Draped around me, I felt you all
You were so heavy…
I wore you like a mourning robe
It was so sad to dance with someone so sad,
but in my dreams, our dance was picturesque
Sadness can be beautiful.
