Dancing

Two kids

The song

The beat

The rhythm

You know the rhythm, don't you?

Pulling you up

Pulling you to me

Out there

I know it's scary

Couldn't we let go and not care

Just for tonight?

No one's watching

And we are surrounded by friends

And I can't feel myself

Can't control myself

And I love this feeling

Smiling up at you in the grass

Untied shoelaces

Laughter

Sprinkled memories

All around us

Dancing

Not because we know how to dance

Because I want to

With you

Hoppy

Dancey

Thing

Don't really know what we're doing

But you're here and you're with me

And that's good enough

And we're laughing

Dancing

Has never been this fun.

  • What I want

    I wasn’t

    Sure.

    Not one hundred percent.

    I knew I wanted it

    But I wasn’t prepared last time

    We weren’t ready last time

    I’m surprised I was ready this time.

    But I was -

    We were.

  • Hindsight is 20/20

    I am here to say this

    in only facts

    because I don't rely on feelings.

    Fact:

    Your Mr. Remarkable is quiet.

    Cold.

    Closed off.

    Didn't interact unless

    absolutely necessary

    smiled maybe twice.

  • Island

    I would feel -

    relaxed if I were

    on an island by myself.

    I could forget about

    my life

    forget about overdue math

    and whether I'm behind or not

    doing the right thing is always wrong
