Dance!

 

By Savannah Skye

Dance
Feel the sensation
As your feet touch the ground
Feel your body
As it moves with the sound
Dance
Spinning in ecstasy
Gliding across the floor
Feeling the rhythm and beat
Pulsating through you more and more
Dance
As it all becomes one
We begin to see
There is no you
There is no me
There is no music
There is just
Dance
