My Dance - I am all in
“You are all in when you dance”
He says after a tanda
A vivencia filled with expression, play, and connection
A vividly lived experience in the moment
With another deep and playful soul
“You express and feel the music at another level”
“And I wish I could be more like that”
Says another man
A connection that had been filled with intensity, entanglement, coldness, separation
and reconnection over many years
Music moves through me
Like blood through my body
She heightens my senses, sensitises, caresses and touches me in deep places
She invites me into her mystery, into her vortex
To play, to feel, to experience life through me
The music takes hold of my heart, my soul, my entire being
An unrelenting hold of my entire being
To be with her, to make love with her
In the moment,
In the present moment.
I breathe the breath of life
And it enters me
Like a lover penetrating deeply into my body
Making love to my entire body, heart, and soul
I am lost in the moment
Lost in her spell
As the breath flows into my body, caressing, massaging, holding me
Until my deepest and darkest emotions are felt
Excavated, and lifted to the surface of my body
My emotions I had suppressed
My emotions I had pushed
My emotions I had wronged
For fear of being ridiculed
For fear of being rejected
For fear of being hurt
For fear of losing love
I dance these emotions to the surface
From my womb
My belly
My precious heart
My throat that swallowed so many words and sounds
Now coming out through my breath, sighs, screams, shudders
Tears flowing
Tears desiring to be seen
To be witnessed
To be felt
Feeling my ecstasy, excavating my emotions
Now ready to be seen and witnessed
And expressed through my dance
Yes, I am all in
Yes, I express and feel the music at another level
I am transcended through exquisite music
Through the breath of life
Into another realm
