Sway

You came upstairs in a rush, your headphones on. You had to play me this song, you said, I had to hear it. The music struck me strange but when the drums came in you swayed, turning back to me laughing, and I move too, I move too, I move too, to undo some static in the air, the mood I was in, the dust there on the stairs the mess left in the kitchen, the ways I will never know you, and how you may never know me, our many if only's - I move too, when I watch you move, too, I want to move too, when I watch you dance. You fling your hands, you laugh and laugh, high above the street, nobody gets to see you dance like this but me. When you sway, I sway, and if I could love you more I have not yet found a way.
