Dancing to my Heart

Sounds are coming nearer and louder

Louder and nearer are the sounds

Hearing the sound of someone else’s heart beating is intoxicating, making me want to dance.

Dancing to the faint melodies of trap and Rhythmic Blues. 

Who would have even knew

The sound not too loud but enough for me to hear it

Jamming and trying to get on key

Studying the sound and moving my body to the beat

Suddenly my heart joins in to become one

Dancing to the sound of two beats, one song

In my own space and time

Never realizing the other heart skipped a beat

Then mine was beating alone

Looking in the direction of the initial bass drop

No sound

My own begun to slow down

Dancing to the sound of one heart beat is sometimes harder than dancing to the sound of your own.

Maybe because you never know when the other person decides to leave your song alone…
