Drunk on Passion – Ishita Gupta

A poem on how I feel connected with myself when I dance 🙂

My soul takes me to a land faraway

Guided by the soft melodies, I sway faraway.

I write music with my body, paint art with my feet

Emotions form poems; I surrender where they meet,

I sing with my fingers, steal words with my eyes

I try to escape reality, and this world full of lies,

I leap into the crescendo, and slide down the notes

I twirl around the refrains, blooming like a rose.

My soul takes me to a land faraway

Guided by the soft melodies, I sway faraway.

Let life give me one last chance

I’ll be drunk on passion, drunk on dance….
