Slowly

This familiarity feels good to me,
My touch after this time, still known
Lands slowly on your arm
Kind stranger from that other time
It’s been a while, a life, since

My body is magnetized to run into you
It’s either my wisdom, or my passion
Pulling me electrified to you
Clear experience or blind attraction
Automatically controlling my breathing

Opposite we stand, dancing, doing the dance
Twirling with words and beats, eyes
Showing smiles in the best light
Compliments when necessary
Touches where wanted

I love it and I’m slowly tired of this.
I know you know all that is here
And I know you want it too
So let’s skip the beat and move

Ever so slowly
To where we meet
Again
Ever so slowly

Dancing where we’re safe
Slowly
Slower
Forever
