...one daring feat

I can’t stop this daring tango
the constant two step
between the tick of time
and my own mortality
wherein I find
my life’s choreography
is orchestrated by
no one else but me
and as I begin
to truly understand
the tempo I chose
is less than desirable
it leaves me longing
to learn a new dance

heartbeats hang
on midnight hours
like pendulous dreams
swaying in wait
a steady, constant pulse
reminding me
there within the
the truth of my soul
where nothing but
honesty lives
resides the answers
to my own heart’s desires

and then I realize
I already knew
the transitions
that needed to be made
and the steps
that have to be taken
to achieve the improvisation
that is the true rhythm
of my life’s dance

it all begins with me
and one daring feat
…wherein I allow
a new dance to begin
