Dance Again

I want to share this dance.

By Kathy TsoukalasPublished about a year ago • Updated about a year ago • 1 min read

I looked in your eyes and smiled,

and that’s how it all began.

A clever wink, paired with

the gentle nudge of your hand.

I spun as you asked,

as graceful as I knew how to be,

not yet knowing that with that spin,

I crossed a line I could barely see.

I didn’t know that with that spin,

I really couldn’t go back.

I didn’t know if we’d dance again,

yet I hoped we were on track.

So now I say to you,

the one I want to dance with again-

I’ll be content waiting here,

Rooted to the floor,

waiting for my chance.
