Here I stand in this empty room
With four walls and a mirror
My pain is evident in my reflection
So much that I want so badly to hide
Inside myself
To soothe my pain, I play music
The song that plays has the message
Of a love betrayal, which happens to be
The cause of my pain.
My body sways and moves in a way
I never thought it could
The last step landed me on my knees,
Swaying my arms and the upper part
Of me
Surprisingly the hand of a person I don't
Know, touched my hand
Pulled me up,
Helped me finish the dance I started
My body moved,
Legs and arms flexed,
It was almost like sex.
My partner twirled and dipped me,
Emotionally strong couldn't afford
To fall weak.
I wasn't familiar with dirty dancing and
I'm confident that's what was happening
The anger that steamed from my heart and soul
Have to be released in this dance
Toward the finale
We danced closely
The song ended
I walked away,
From my unnamed partner,
Those four walls,
And the mirror.
