THE DANCE
By Yoorim Chae
Another phase, maybe a kiss
Some connection less intricate
Every day fighting
To stay awake, to getaway
Anything to avoid dismay
In the stories a mind creates
The puff with the drag
The over-binged gag
She loses herself
And the darkness attacks
The sadness follows
Pain she tries to swallow
The confusion attracts
This side of she.. a disease..
But say..
What if, just what if
Translation is lost in thoughts?
The if’s, and’s, or but’s,
When reality speaks for itself
That the truth
is truer within the roots
of your beating heart.
Why is that so hard?
When ‘it’ finally sinks and reality brinks Your mind less screams
“WHAT’S WRONG WITH ME”
You think in sync with harmonious peace
What brings are things only seen
When space creates grace for another being, another melody.
A dance represents hope
A trance of being when broke
A glance at the future’s hold
A might to atone feeling alone
You realize through healed eyes
The sway is the dance
The kiss is the trance
Strong might - a brief glance
to the story of self romance
