dance

there are mirrors in my home

there are mirrors in my bones

can’t break em gotta shake em

shake em till the shadows come and dance

get to know them

how they move and show me 

what I’m afraid to see

and when I know them 

I can show myself

what I need to be love

inside and out

accepting all parts of myself

see in the dark

light only shows us who we think we are

I see you in me I see me in you

I can’t take it can I take it 

and transmute my fear into love

and trust

that I’m becoming 

exactly who I’m here to be 

somewhere between who I’ve been and dreamed

I am my wildest dreams 

on the other side of myself

I am the only one 

keeping myself from my soul

now I know 

now I know

that I can dance with my eyes open

I can dance with my eyes closed

I can dance

and so I dance

I dance

I dance 

I dance 


I dance for my mother

I dance for my father

I dance for all the grandmothers 

who never had a chance

that’s why I dance



I dance 

I dance 

I dance
