Dance With Me

Heart-felt monologues can set a mood and flowers may go a long way to say I love you, but when I really want to know the extent of your affections, I'll ask you to dance with me.

Because a slow dance is possibly, the most sensual, captivating gesture known to men.

If you accept my hand and lean in close, I know that you are completely comfortable being vulnerable with me, that you enjoy being in my arms. You know you're safe here.

Your chin gracing my shoulder and tendrils of your hair grazing my cheeks and my chin send my heart into rhythms only hummingbird's wings can match. Though my heart is racing, it's laughing with all of the joy in the world.

My mind has never been more alert.

Not only am I aware of every molecule of my own existence but of every part of your being as well. Your slender legs and graceful feet keeping time with the melody, my heart is still laughing, reciting the lyrics set to the beat I feel echoing in the ambiance.

So sway to some old school Jazz. Let Miles Davis and Billie Holiday melt the world away.

My worries and troubles are no more when your fingers curve around my palms. They disappeared because I'm with you, so don't you worry about knowing the steps or not.

Trust me and let me guide you. Feel the rhythm my heart is making for you and melt into my arms. Rest your head on my shoulder and just be.

When I said I'd save myself for you, I didn't just mean for consummating marriage.

I have saved myself for this moment, this dance with you.
