It Takes Two

If it takes two to tango,
tell me how you can dance
by yourself,
I'm leaving you on the dance-floor
mainly because you have two left feet

If it takes two to make you happy,
then I'll be here for you,
but if you want to make fun of my weight
then I'm leaving,
and never looking back again

If it takes two to make me smile,
and to actually laugh again
then I did the right thing
by leaving you and your horrible rhythm...

Because right now...
it only takes me!

This poem was very interesting. I wasn't sure about it after the first read, but on the second, I found the rhythem, and after the third time, I was really felt what you were saying.
I really liked the beginning; comparing a dying relationship with a bad dance partner, and your ending was dynamic.
Write on! I am looking forward to reading more of your work!

A really well written poem. Love the conclusion (it's quite interestinga and funny) "It only takes me!". I think we really need someone to care and love us. We do need a people in our life. That's a true fact. The statements in your poem are quite meaningful too. Overall, an amazing piece.

Love the sentements in this. If somone no good for you move on. And at the conclusion your right yoy don;t always need somone else to be happy. Good job

I love the defiant message you sent in this poem. You don't always need a companion to be happy! Well written.
