Dancing Around You

dancing around you like a child
around a flame
around a bubble
everything you could mean
is too fragile still, dangerous,
and silent.

dancing around you like a child
in the music
in the hope
everything you could mean
is the falsetto note
that turns my heart
into a ringing well.

dancing around you like a child
through the sunrise
through the wet laundry
everything you could mean
runs like fresh water
into a cold glass to have
and to hold.
