two steps forward,

one step back,

together we waltz

as vultures circle above,

our bodies flow as one and

we hum our tune –

the stars are hypnotized;

we ignore them,

we twirl, we bend, we heal

we cry, we break, we kneel

and after our limbs grow tired

and after our lungs collapse

you and I will work it out and take

two steps forward

one step back
