nice & slow

It's as if the meeting took me by surprise: I want to rush towards it, but for some reason my feet take a step back. My heart is beating faster than the rhythm, but instead of pathos, there is honesty: ‘I'm not much of a dancer, so let's skip the choreography and just go slowly and see how it turns out.’ There is something touching about this - trust that is built not on plans, but on a willingness to move in time with someone else's movements. Lightness, awkwardness, and that sweet pause between ‘just a little more’ and ‘it's already started.’
