life partners dance
I am following in your footsteps
Matching you stride for stride
As we walk along listening to music
Going in a loop from room to room
When outside is too hot or cold or storming
Or the air quality is unhealthy
We switch to doing inside laps
Keeping up our daily exercise
We march along in a two-person parade
Coupled in our private line dance
Me staying on the beat if I look down at your feet
You reminiscing about days past picketing
If I get too close crowding your space
You step aside for me to lead the way
Though as we are walking a circular path
No one is really in front or behind
We are good at being together
But if I were a good dancer like you
For your birthday I would take you dancing
Knowing how much fun you had
You who loved to dance
Before you paired with me
Happy now in a different way
Doing our life partners dance
