TWO LEFT FEET

Sometimes I feel as though love is a dance and I stepped onto the dance floor with two left feet,

So now I'm tripping over my self-esteem,

Because these lyrical moon walks of mine seem incapable of sustaining a relationship,

Is it even possible for anyone to be so bad at this?

I feel this dance was made for two,

But I'm stuck in a sad solo bowl dance,

With every twist and turn I step on my own toes,

And just when it seems I've gotten the hang of it,

I trip over myself and sadly I never seem to have enough time to brace myself for the fall,

Maybe I just wasn't built for love,

Maybe my heart with its clumsy two left feet can never follow the beat of another,

Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever find a love as stable as ink on paper,

Because sometimes I'm envious of the way my pen dances across the page everytime I have something to say,

I wish I could be as smooth to the touch of a cupid arrow,

Wish I could embrace it as gracefully as my pen kisses the paper,

Love is a dance,

And sadly I'm a really bad dancer,

Curse my two left feet.
