Poem: Untitled

Tue. July 20, 2004

By Ana

I can feel the rhythm pumping through me

The need to move puts up a fight

Adrenalin is rushing

My heart is pumping

This rush is making me so high

My head is dizzy with the drinks

While my hand beats on my thigh

The lights are teasing me,

Caressing my body then not

My hips are swaying slowly

The sound tingling on my skin

I touch my body where I feel the need

I know they’re looking but I don’t care

This dance is just for me, but let them stare

The DJ feeds my need with music

I’m in a trance don’t interrupt

Don’t wake me I’m not nearly done

Keep it loud and keep it fast

Give me more and don’t dare stop

I want my legs to burn,

My heart to beat it’s fastest

I want to sweat and drip all night

Each muscle will be flexed, worked and abused

Tomorrow I will wake and my body will be sore

Each flinch of pain will remind me of the night before

The night that doesn’t come often enough

The night that I loose myself

On the dance floor
