Analysis of Dance of Love
Have you ever been dancing and tripped over your own feet?
That's how it was when I first saw her. I danced towards you because it was love at first sight. I reached out my hand and asked if you wanted to dance. You blushed, took my hand and we danced the night away.
We danced for hours, then you tripped and fell. As you were falling, I held your hand tighter and fell with you.
As we were getting up, you asked me "why did you fall?"
With a smile, I replied "because this dance was a representation of love. I knew it was real because (when it comes to love), I wanted us to fall together and never let each other go."
She smiled back and said "I guess that's why I'm still holding your hand."
