Dance Poem by Arvie Calimlim

If I could dance with you
I’ll make the earth stand still
If I would dance with you
Will you say you will?

Maybe you will, maybe you won’t
I wonder what you’d feel
I’m sorry but this thing I have
Just seems to be so real

Though I want you with me
I won’t keep you if you disagree
If you’re not feeling happy
I’ll just learn to set you free

But before I could
I just need to say
What I should have
Along the way

With just one look
My heart you took
With just your smile
My life’s worthwhile

One last dance with you
Is enough for me
To keep living on
To keep breathing in

I’ll have the courage
This is my last chance
I’m finally gonna ask
Can I have this dance?
