Dance with My Dark Side

In my darkest hour you call me- I wish you’d forget my name
you ask me to face my deepest fears- this life is not a game
To take a chance and stretch my wings-to reach beyond this place
To learn to speak to parts of me-I never chose to face

You tempt me with seduction-you try to draw me in
you tell me you won’t hurt me-that I will live again
you hold a mirrored vision-for me it’s clear to see
Move your body free your mind-let go and dance with me

A haunted darkened passage-it leads me to the light
it tells me to surrender-to let go- of the fight

The dance is not familiar- the steps I do not know
it demands I trust and feel- to learn to just let go
The dance is not familiar- a challenge I now choose
to open to the wisdom-to step up and not to lose

To know I hold the power- to move or just stand still
to know it’s just a partner- that I control my will

The dance is not familiar- the steps I do not know
It demands I trust and feel- to learn to just let go
the dance is not familiar….
