This is a Collab poem
Thank you Rico for this collab

Let's start the magic

Have you ever witnessed dancers falling in love with each other as they move?
This is the story of two souls who found each other in the rhythm of their dance.

♡Rico's POV : *I saw you dancing in a crowded room,
You seemed so happy without me.
Your captivating eyes in the crowd,
Simply impossible not to recognize.
With that straight hair
And that distinctive smile,
In that red dress and golden accessories.
I wouldn’t know how to express what I feel,
Thank goodness paper and pen
Can speak for me.

They’ve already said how much I love you,
How much I hate loving you,
How close you are to perfection,
How angels envy you,
And how demons laugh in my face.

With every dance we ever shared,
With every step we ever took,
It all slowly fell apart
And unraveled.
Our hands let go,
And the love
That never even existed
Disappeared.

A step forward:
I love you.
A step back:
You don’t love me.
In side-to-side synchrony:
You’d never love me.
Returning to the turns:
You’d never be a part of me.
Because, once it’s in the heart,
It can never be removed.

Darling,
Don’t dance this dance with me.
His gaze is more beautiful than mine,
His smile as perfect as yours.
His graceful steps are gentle,
Like the spring breeze.
This waltz
Isn’t made of violent waves,
But of restraints within me,
With no possibility
Of being the ocean itself
Or getting lost in it…*

Poem continues in the comments:

♥️** Heartchips POV :**
*It was a radiant winter day,
And I was in my dance class.
Winter freezes hearts, they say,
But mine melted the moment I saw you.

You were staring at me—
Eyes locked, unwavering, magnetic.
I couldn’t help but smile,
And in that instant, my frozen heart thawed.

Your loving gaze sought only me in the crowd,
Warm, kind, unspoken yet clear.
Who are you, dear lover boy,
With your cutesy face and innocent smile?

Draped in a black shirt and white jacket,
Earphones resting like effortless charm,
You made my heart stir with something new.
Did you feel it too?

Your eyes stayed with me,
And as I danced, you filled my thoughts.
I imagined you as my partner,
Each step drawing me closer to you.

I think—no, I know—I’ve started to love you.
How much I adore loving you!
Your perfection feels unattainable,
Even models would envy your charm.
I blush, secretly, with every thought of you.

Fate aligned—you became my partner,
And my dancing shoes carried me to you.
With every shared step, my heart unraveled,
Falling deeper into love,
Until it was yours completely.

But then, our hands let go.
The love we built lingered,
Unyielding, unspoken, eternal,
A melody that refused to fade.

A step forward:
"I love you."
A step back:
"Yes, only you."
Side to side, in perfect synchrony:
"I’ve always loved you,
Though I never found the courage to say it."

Amor, I will forever dance with you.
Your gaze outshines the stars,
Your smile eclipses all others.
Your graceful steps are a hymn to spring,
Romantic and unending.

This love isn’t meant for words,
But to remain safely within my heart.
Fragile, yet infinite.
Though I fear losing you, my dearest,
I’ll keep loving you—always,
Forever dancing with you in my dreams.*

What an incredible poem you both created! Two different points of view for a shared feeling. The way you subtly explored the emotions and insecurities of a relationship through dance is beautiful. It’s like two poems and at the same time, one — hard to explain, but they converse with each other, in sync, just like a dance. The divided perspectives, his (Rico) and hers (Chips), create a unique atmosphere because we can clearly see how both perspectives can be so different, even though they are both feeling the same thing deep down, especially at the end of the poems where they share the same idea but express different ways of accepting the end of what could have been. This is really cool because it shows how love can be such a personal experience, even when shared with someone else.
For example, from his point of view, it’s as if he’s more insecure. When he sees her, while he feels love arising, the feeling of lack of reciprocity and something impossible to happen arise together. The beginning, with his description of her — every detail, her hair, her smile, her clothes — shows his admiration for her. The fact that he doesn’t know how to express what he feels shows the whirlwind of emotions that came up in that moment. And when he says, You seemed so happy without me, it reinforces his insecurity, as if he thinks he’s not enough for her, that he can’t be the reason for her happiness. It’s a mix of admiration and suffering. His insecurity is palpable in every line, like when he mentions “angels envy” and “demons laughing at him,” making the internal conflict visible.

#

Meanwhile, from her point of view, it’s more optimistic, dreamy, and full of hope. This first encounter feels magical. She describes more clearly the moment she saw him for the first time, his intense and captivating gaze, with the image of her heart melting as she sees him staring at her. And here we can already see a bit of the contrast, the difference in interpretation of the gazes. While he thinks “she was happy without him,” she was actually happy to see him there, just watching her.

Your loving gaze sought only me in the crowd,
Warm, kind, unspoken yet clear.

This part is also beautiful because it connects with his words, where he says he can't express what he feels, but his pen and paper do the talking. This idea of a love that’s not spoken, but is also not necessary to know it’s real, just the gaze is enough. Her description of him is perfect because, while she’s dressed in a red dress with golden accessories, something more flashy, he is described as “someone simpler”:

#

Draped in a black shirt and white jacket,
Earphones resting like effortless charm,

He’s someone who wouldn’t stand out in the crowd, yet he managed to stand out for her, making her see him there, just admiring him. She feels drawn to the simplicity and innocence he exudes.

Another part that reinforces the difference in perspectives and different ways of feeling this love is when he says:
how much I love you,
How much I hate loving you,
and she says:
I’ve started to love you.
How much I adore loving you!

#

This reinforces the idea that he sees all of this as something hard to deal with, something impossible to happen, even without truly trying to make it happen — maybe out of fear of getting hurt, past love traumas, or something like that. Meanwhile, she sees it in a more idealized and romantic way, even though nothing beyond the dance happens. And all of this is so beautiful, romantic, and at the same time, melancholic.

The dance metaphor was very well used by you both. The beginning of the dance represents the beginning of the feeling, and the end of the dance represents the end of something that could’ve been, but insecurities got in the way. This makes a lot of sense because, just like in love, dance is full of unexpected steps, mistakes, and successes, but at the same time, it requires synchronicity between the partners.

#

The ending, for me, is the best part — the verbal representation of the dance, the moment happening there, and what each one is feeling and thinking. "A step forward, a step back, side by side in sync," both saying "I love you" in silence, only through their eyes. But he thinks she doesn’t love him, and she’s saying she only loves him. While he says she’ll never love him, she says she’s always loved him, even without the courage to say it. This is both beautiful and sad because all of this happens in such a short time, but it feels like a long-term love story. And they end the dance with him saying “don’t dance this dance with me,” and she says, “I will always dance with you.” While he ends the dance saying another person would be better for her, with a more beautiful gaze, a better smile, etc. (which reinforces the idea that he sabotages himself, perhaps as a shield against love, as he says "...But of restraints within me"). She praises him even more, showing that he is the only one she loves and makes her happy.

#

I think the poem makes us think about our own insecurities and expectations when it comes to love. Sometimes we feel ready to give everything, but the other person might not be at the same place or might still be afraid to surrender.

#

I just loved it!!! You guys really nailed it here!! SaberSaysPretty SaberSaysPretty (I know it's long, sorry, I just tried to see both perspectives, and sorry if it was confusing, it wasn't easy to talk about both perspectives at the same time hahaha)

Both the povs are lovely, and the similarities in the poem show the differences in their thoughts.

The speaker in Rico's poem being unaware of the reciprocated love from her side but she knowing that he loves her back. This poem is so beautiful and aching. Good job you two.

I won't say much except the fact that this writing resonates with half of my entire being.

#

Love was gained, then you lost it.

#

But don't lose yourself.

#

Yes, loving yourself is also important. Remember that.
