She swayed with grace and poise As if she were created by the hand of degas: A still beauty brought to life Like a glorious swan that swims swiftly Or like a fluttering butterfly flapping through the clouds. In my mind you moved. Your feet tapped on my heart and the lub-dub of my soul sped A slight inclination to always imitate the You that danced in my mind A greater inclination to reminisce about our younger selves and our younger pains Overpowered by an antipathy so strong that it caused even my greatest of inclinations To dwindle and halt.

If You Could Move Like Her
She swayed with grace and poise As if she were created by the hand of degas: A still beauty brought to life Like a glorious swan that swims swiftly Or like a fluttering butterfly flapping through the clouds. In my mind you moved. Your feet tapped on my heart and the lub-dub of my soul sped A slight inclination to always imitate the You that danced in my mind A greater inclination to reminisce about our younger selves and our younger pains Overpowered by an antipathy so strong that it caused even my greatest of inclinations To dwindle and halt.
