Dancing To Your Music Poem by Collette Y Anderson Williams

I spread my wings
To receive your guarded love.
You shine like the morning sun,
But only for a moment,
Yet I wait to dance to your music.

My heart I chose to place
In your almost-open arms.
Your eyes say, 'I am ready',
But then you withhold,
Still I wait to dance to your music.

I look beyond your rigid exterior
For I see a beautiful soul,
Wanting so much of life to behold.
My heart reaches for yours,
While I wait to dance to your music.

My whole being aches to know you,
As I watch you fight
With your own emotions.
My heart struggles to remind me
That I need to wait to dance to your music.
