Nerves

hands are shaking
knees are collapsing
mind is racing
i walk in the door
and find my place
he walks up to me
tells me his opinion
and e start to sway
his handsa t my waist
my hands at hs neck
we start to move
completely in snyc
the moment ends
but our memories never do
another song
another partner
but the hands 
and the knees
never stop showing the worst thing
nerves

Ahhh but nerves my dear Poet friend are what keeps us on the top of the game... When you watch iceskating in the arena of the olympics its nerve racking and they sometimes fall but when you watch it on tv for a xmas show or for fun, there is no preasure... The nerves is what makes us stand and be noticed even if we fall at least we were there... sorry to ramble lol... luv Michael soup mail back to u
