Dancing Words

Words, my words specifically, are kind of like dancing.

 Dancing is dramatic, vibrant and sad or happy, just like my words.

 When you're dancing, you are never in the same area for long, you're always on the move.

 Some forms of dancing are graceful and fluid while others may be more forthright and outgoing.

 So when you think about it, my words, each and every one of them are dancing across every
page I have ever written or will write on.

 This paper or page is my stage and the spot light is on me.

 I perform not for others, but for myself, I don't see the crowd out before me. However I
would be a liar if I didn't say that one day I hope my dancing words will at some point
pull someone through the day or hold onto hope or even make you just hold on a little bit
longer to this fragile life we so delicately live.
