come dance

if you only knew
what it felt like

dancing
on this old
dark floor
so smooth
and welcoming
like soft skin

moving your
feet
your hips
arms
hands
knees
your soft
soft soul
and your
hard hard
life
across time
on this smooth
old
dancing
room
floor

music
out there
and inside
taking you
where
it can

if you let go
and want
more

if you only knew

what it felt like
dancing
on this old
dark
dancing room
floor

with yourself
with your friends

oh dance dance dance
and
forget
til you know

oh
if you only
knew

you would
surely
surely
be here
too
