Being intensely passionate about Ballroom Dance forms Rumba is among my favorites; though I can never chose between which one I like the most. During our Creative Writing classes, on the very first day we were told to write a spontaneous piece and what I wrote about was on Dance, The Rumba. So today talking about Rumba with an old friend of mine ,I had to write about it in this space. Here it goes:
Rumba is all about telling your story. It is a dance of Love.
It holds the expression of desires through movements captured in moments.
Rumba is a vertical expression of a horizontal wish; a dance of intimacy beholding immense intoxication.
The man holds the lady like the skin on her side is the reason for life.
Like she is the only one there.
He holds her close to his chest as if their hearts beat as one.
Enhancing their rhythmic movements; he pushes her back like his heart has been ripped off his chest.
Pulls her back like she is the only one he is living for, breathing for.
They breathe deep together enhancing the length of their clinging bodies; elucidating the intensity of their Love and contentment of being One.
Towards the end he drops her...
As if she has ruined him for life...!
