I Dance

I Dance


I dance
When I hear the rhythm
Of beats island to streets
My spirit can't help but
Feel moved
I get down with that groove
Right down to the grooves
Of my toes
Tapping the Earth and
Calling her to waking
And I feel my hips shaking
And there just is no faking
This freedom
I lose thought
I break pattern
I flow until I fly
I feel what its like
To have your body cry
Cry out
Shout out
Wail out
No doubts
No question
No thought
No judgement in ability
Only pure vulnerability
My body in chaos
No reason to be made
I dance for ancestors
With homage to be paid
A warrior of joy
Sweating away
All my fears
I dance with power and passion
I sweat out my tears
