Love's Dance

I wanted to say that I love you...

but the words just stuck

in my throat
they stuck

not because they aren't there...
but because

they truly are

I wanted to tell you I need you

But my arms

just stayed by my side

not because they don’t

want to hold you

but because they

might not let go

I wanted to hold you and love you

But my heart

Just fell to my feet

Not because you aren’t

In it’s chambers

But because

you’re in every beat
