Since the dance video will for some strange reason a problem to some people, I cannot link it here. Therefore you will have to do with the poem alone. SHAME, really.....

It is ART!

And as the light fades I am asking you Lift me Take me in your arms and dance with me The way we used to dance My mass of tangled bangs sweaty and swirling My green eyes catching yours My feet, my feet ... My feet on all five toes and pirouette Be my dance partner again Be the strong man and not just lift me for that one throw that one that will let me fly and land on my feet, my feet ... My feet and spinning back into your arms Lift me and dance with me Forget about the fear of hurting me Forget about my back Be strong for me Be strong and dance with me Be my feet, my feet ... My feet and let me live again For one night let me live again.

It is, isn't it? They are artists, performing both in Cirque du Soleil-like environments, and they are living together. There is another dance video I will post soon, with a different poem, but it's a solo, so that didn't really fit here :)
