Free to Dance

There are times you just want to enjoy an internal part of you that is inspired by the external world. There those times you put on the music in the house and dance with abandon. Kinda like when you watch a movie where some girl hears music in a place like the forest or the beach and she dances and dances (not with anyone or for anyone) but simply because she wants to feel that freedom. Usually the director (and all his goons) know how to bring it all to a crescendo and you move with her and almost share her feeling the beat. By the time she's done, she's out of breath and your entranced.

I want to

I want to dance with sand under my feet
to nothing but the sound of drum beats
I want swing and swirl, twist and twirl
to get lost in the wind's whirl
I want to forget the world and feel from within
that I love the body that I live in

I want dance with sand under my feet
to a frenzy as I raise up the heat
As I move my body I am one with the beat
and I move it as it moves me
I want to indulge myself and immerse myself deep
in knowing in my moving I am free

I want to dance with sand under my feet
not to any particular single or hit
But to a rhythm that is raw and real
And know in that moment how I feel
Is not attached to any particular being
For it does not matter if anyone is seeing

I want to dance with sand under my feet
or even leaves that have fallen from a tree
Be it on a beach or in a forest
I want to dance like am flawless
Not to act, not to sing
Not even to be seen

Just to dance with the world under my feet
and my world to be a rhythmic beat
that with abandon I can feel
And be enchanted and know its real
I will do it at every chance
Because I love to be free to dance
