Slow Dance
In this quiet room, just you and I,
Steps slow, under the low-lit sky.
Hands gently resting, slight and sure,
Moving together, finding our cure.
Eyes meet, no words to speak,
This slow dance makes us weak.
In the pause, a soft caress,
Time halts in its tenderness.
Turn and sway, in silent song,
With you here, nothing’s wrong.
A gentle glide, a soft advance,
In this moment, the slow dance.
