Tango

Many, many times over the years I tried to let go, give my body over to someone else’s rhythm, but had never been able to. Never fully. Battling always with the impulse to lead, exacerbated by the sense that no-one ever hears the music the same way I do.

I so long entertained the fantasy that some day, it would just happen. Someone would just take me in his arms and dance me.

Oh, thank you.
