The Dance

I wish I could dance, you know,
Feel the rhythm pounding through the floor.
My feet.
My body.
My mind.
Bodies flushed together,
Feeling free, not a care in the world
Sweat glistening on my body


Can I please dance now?
I want it so bad, you’ve no idea
To walk in the door
And head straight for the floor
That's all I want to do
Is dance the dance
I'm free when I do


I want to move my body through the air
Feel things all over again
Feeling energized and revitalized
But I can't, no transportation, see
Dancing the night away is a desire
Wanna spin till I can't spin no more
Please, just let me dance
I promise I'll be good

I'll wear my little black dress
Place my hands on my knees
Slowly bring them up
Writhing
Swaying
Twisting
Hair cascading over my bare shoulders
Peace, something I barely know
Excited and aroused

Can I please dance now?
My inner diva needs to be let loose
My mind too, be blank for once
Only thinking of the next song
Singing at the top of my lungs
The rush of endorphins,
Flowing through my veins
Please, just let me dance
I promise I'll be good
