Nataraja
Sparks fly from your hands as you twirl
Flames flash from your eyes
Every twist and turn sends fire spiraling higher into the heavens
As you dance wrapped in smoke
But you are not dark.
Passion radiates from you with every flawless step
You move to rhythm of your beating heart
While I stand numb and downcast.
Darkness envelopes me like a shroud
I cannot the hear the rhythm of your dance
With fear and doubt whispering in my ears
Clinging to me like besotted lovers.
I want the sparks to fly
I want to melt away my fear
Sear my doubt
Reignite the passion that barely smolders inside.
Teach my stumbling feet the steps they once knew
Take my arms wrapped around me and lift them up
Let me hear the rhythm of your heart so I can dance again.
