Dancing

Dancing is not just getting up painlessly,

like a leaf blown on the wind;

Dancing is when you tear your heart out

and rise out of your body to hang suspended

between the worlds

We trod, and trod, and trod through life

Weighed down by so many things

Fear

Loneliness

Anger

Hate

Fear

Greed

The need for success

The desire to be love

We are bent under our burden

And our feet are like clay

Until our hearts are broken open

And Sacred love rushes through

Waking our soul

And releasing us from our bondage

So that our hearts sing

And

We

Dance
