Spinning
take me back
to
better times
spinning round and round
and the world becomes all but a blur
hold on tight
because we'll go faster
My laughter rises from my chest
into the atmosphere
and my heart beats wildly
in my eardrums
electric pleasure
from the dizzyness and
lack of control
take me back to
when I was a child
and my summer dress would caress my knees
blowing in the wind
my hair lifting from my shoulders
and love
love flows through my veins
becoming a part of me
just like the sound of your voice
And I'm
Spinning like a crystal on a window pane
I glisten, glow
glorious sunlight bathing everything
Ballerina child
Dancing on tip-toes
arms raised above my head
and
falling
falling
falling
slow
