Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

The music beat is slow,
I wiggle around and try,
But I keep stepping on your toe,
My dance steps completely awry,
I follow your fast paced lead,
With my clumsy feet that slide,
We slow down to a slower speed,
So we won’t collide,
You think I’m just joking around,
You laugh like it’s a joke,
Your dancing makes me confound,
It’s not too long until I croak :)
