My body loves me when I am dancing
It is through dance that my mind and body become one
Nothing else exists in that moment
I caress my body at the rhythm of the beat
I learn to love myself more each time
I close my eyes and love takes over
I can never say no to music
I can never say no to movement
And between bachata and salsa
I feel passion
And between cumbias and reggaeton
I am free
I dedicate this poem to the dancers of the world. I can’t wait for the day that I am dancing in a crowd, being asked by strangers or asking strangers to dance. I can’t wait to be in a group with my friends where all we are doing is dancing and singing at the top of our lungs.
One day.
Angelica
