And We Danced
It started as a group
then dwindled down to just two
the 'you' and 'I' of 'us'.
We began to move.
I had your hands in mine,
then pulled your arms around me.
(I was being brave)
We swayed, so close together,
no space between us,
and I closed eyes and smiled.
I was so happy.
Dancing with someone I liked
who like me back for me
and not for what he could get from me.
Stopping more than once,
it was getting that bad,
and laughing when we looked at each other and saw it.
The feeling that dancing had provoked,
and inspired,
that made the night that much more magical.
