You and Me

Dance with me.

You are the one that

knows my swaying steps,

that some days my waltzing feet

drag themselves across the floor;

yet still you will be there

matching my pace,

sharing my pain.

The rhythm my heart beats to

is the one you taught me

for when I can't lift my toes

let alone the weight on my shoulders.

So take my hand

and dance with me

because your familiarity,

your unfailing friendship

is what I've always needed.
