Spinning Without You

No apologies tonight, just the pulse beneath it.
I thought I missed the weight of someone watching close.
But now I'm here alone, and I'm not a ghost.
I'm spinning without you, and I'm not afraid.
The night is wide open, I'm dancing awake.
No weight on my shoulders, just rhythm and space.
I'm spinning without you, and I like the taste.
The bass is in my chest, my feet nowhere to land.
I don't need permission to take up all this air.
I'm learning how to breathe without your hands.
I'm spinning without you, and I'm not afraid.
