A/N: No copyright infringement intended. If anything here bears a striking (suspiciously so) resemblance to someone else's work, please let me know. I will say this: the opening line was inspired by the name of one of SadieMichelle's fics, "We move lightly in this mist". The poem, however, was not.


Dance

We tread lightly through this mist

Reach, recoil

Hands curl into fists

Fear makes for clumsy dancers.

One day, what lies between us must bend

Refract, reflect

A beginning or end

Till then, we weigh our chances.
