The Length of a Song


The Length of a Song


The dance begins
Like an awkward conversation
Each trying to speak first
Wondering who should take the lead
But then the music starts 
And bodies begin to speak
In their own beautiful language
Less thought and more feeling
The story of two people
Told in grace and rhythm
Awkwardness disappearing
And the world is forgotten
In this moment
The length of a song
