sometimes one must remind oneself ...

that there is still the need to dance
to celebrate the you that you are
to recognize
that even in darkness there is light
and there is always music

the music changes
as does the dance

the tempo
the mood
the beat
the volume

as life changes
so does the dance ...
swirling to keep up,
matching the rythms, the pace, the glory ...

but still we dance
naked in our own brilliance .......
