Dancing With The Bridesmaid

A poem about my first dance ever, the day before I published this.

I stared

Into your eyes

Your silver hair hypnotizing me

A leap across nervousness thought to be opaque

A milestone that I thought I could never achieve in this life

And I did it

I took her hands

Felt myself melting away

The smile on my face beyond wide

I hiccuped in my performance

For it was my first orderly performance in my life

Yet it didn't matter, my eyes focused on hers

And hers focused on mine

Didn't care if I screwed up

It was worth it

I have Asperger's syndrome and this was practically an overwhelmingly blissful moment in my life.
