Can I have this Dance?

In any moment of polarity

Having succumbed to emotion- it’s addictive

Shouting” But this is my fundamental truth”

Ready to fight- how silly we are.

Don’t take offense.

But loaded up on drugs ( strong emotion)

While tempting

Does not show restraint

Or the ability to find empathy-

And humanity is suffering.

““““““““““““

Can I engage my passion

With courage and ask my opponent

For this dance-

Weeping with relief

At last I got it right.

  1. too true, love this!
    and maybe, sometimes, it’s okay the way we muddle through our heated, reactive, defensive stances and finally, eventually let go. Hopefully growing more generous in our ability to stop, and just see it as dance.
    Beautiful dancer, hope to see you in person again, one of these days!
