Dancing Man

I was watching you dance

It was a very emotional time

You were impassioned

Yet you were also enraged

The sadness was filling your eyes

You felt bitter that he was gone

Bitter that he was taken away from you

This emotion was making you dance

Your eyes were full of love

Your mind full of thoughts

Craziness encircled you

Your heart felt sore

Yet your feet took you away

You danced, you jumped, you shouted

You were so lonely

You called out for peace

The pain you felt was seeping out

That pain made you dance

You called for me, you asked for me to come

I came, I helped you

I showed you that I cared

Your father was gone but I am here

It is your love for me that made you dance
