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.

    I have people who will hold me 

    Love me

    Splash me in sparkles and giggles and emails

    And I have people who will hurt me

    Snark

    Sarcasm

    Never really laughing

    Never really there

  • Take me away

    Just take me away from here

    Whisper stories of starlight and fire

    Water scrambling over rocks

    Iron in my eyes

    Just take me away from here

    To a fantasyland where it's us

    Just us

  • The thoughts I'd say

    You

    Don't get it

    Don't get me

    Where did the magic go?

    I literally do have to be the best

    You can't see outside your own opinions

    And I'm a hypocrite

    Following a faulty compass but
