teach me to dance

will you teach me i said
how to dance
how to hold you close enough
to span the moon

let me hear the thunder in your veins
that's addicted to music
let me move with the swirl
the pattern of your feet
like magic never touching the floor
teach me i said ,  teach me once more 

how do i lean into the heat and see
euphoria at its best shining like silver
in your eyes

teach me the lifts and the safety 
of a fall
imprinting the day with the melody of
our laughter

take me to a red ball
where sweat
is beauty formed into a dance
let me be your mirror
i don't want to be just a face
i want a chance

teach me church without form of
books or oaths
show me the depth of the woman i am
in love
show me how to touch you sacredly
like the love that formed you

let me be close enough to see
the boy with dreaming eyes
sees only me
lips are poems
yours are mine
