we will dance again – for moose and bean.

Posted on June 4, 2008

i swear and cry and grate

you worry and fumble and wish it all away

we will dance again

i scream and throw and punch myself in the stomach

you shake and huddle and try to think of the better day

we will dance again

i love and hate and remember nothing good

you seethe and smash and can’t quite sum up why we are here

we will dance again

i yell at nothing and drive nails into walls

you hold my hand and direct the hammer

we will dance again

i battle to speak and lose all my coherence

you smile and hope it’s not a grimace

we will dance again

thank you for keeping my feet firm grounded

we will dance again

    We will truly dance again.

    Very inspiring. Just what one needs when they are forced to drag themselves to work on a shitty day like this.

    My legs are weak but I know I will dance again.

    I’m back.:-)

    We will dance again
    and when we do we will
    fly
    you and I across the
    sky
    and as we do and you
    sigh
    perhaps like light, first sight
    the earliest dawn after night
    we will see love and hate
    pass through the same gate
    made from the same place
    filled with grace
    everything
    everything
    teaches
    reaches
    touches
    makes us who we are
    fleeting
    fragile humans
    experiencing
    experience.

    [In appreciation. MdW]
