skinny dipping

Compelled to dance in a river of melodies
Traveling, unraveling as I swim methodically.
Hypnotically I am induced by new rhythms
That I meet. Greeted by fresh beats beneath the
Sheets of

Music that once lay dormant; making sounds
Without a song. Knowing it carried some
Strength, but unaware of how strong. Knowing
It possessed some length, never sure of
How long.

Now awakened and smitten, this song aches
To be written with notes that gloat of the
Different strokes that it takes to keep
These bodies afloat along the bars
Of this timeless tune ing

In now to the countless rehearsals that it
Takes to make this concert of energy.

And in my mind, all I can ask
('cause it's hard for me to grasp)
Is what made me worthy of the task
For you to come swim with me?
