Dancing without you

Dancing without

You but with

Rhythm and

Movement

Gentled

In the depths

Of my soul

Buzzing in every

Rising cell

I will give love

As a gift

Expecting nothing

In return

I will love love

Even when

It hurts me

And I will dance

As if my soul

Was on fire

And then I will dance

In it's ashes

I will be hurt only

When it needs me

And I will love

As if it were a dance

A Poem for Fall

Holding you

Laughing into

Your hair

You laughing

Into my neck

My tender dance

And falling spinning

Life can be

So sucking lifting

Hard and cold

Hard to sleep and

Hard to hold

I'm spent of you

And balanced

I'm looking out

Looking back

And thinking of

Your laugh

Tender tinder

In my neck
