Dance Dear Dreamer
She twirls and flutters
hair FLYING ~ heart POUNDING
a shadow of the night
brought to
life
()
she dances
eyelashes casting shadows on her
palepaleskin
she's
I N T A N G I B L E
is she even real {you wonder silently}
she seems to be nothing
butbutbut
a
dreamillusiondelusion
a
silhouette against the light of day
()
you reach out a hand
you beckon
she doesn't seem to see you
or anything you do
so you climb the
WindingTwiningsteps
to the stage
where she dances
all alone
&and&
she sees you
suddenly
&and&
beckons you
(yes, you)
over
()
you're caught in this WHIRLWIND
ofofof
passion & joy & giddiness & floating
it's like nothing
nothing
you've ever felt
neverEverEver
()
She curtsies
inky, silky ebony hair
BRUSHING, caressing
her PalePaleskin
a testament
to
the darkness
that she was born to
to the darkness
in which she lives
()
he bows
caught in her
deceptively beautiful WEB of
floatingfallingflying lies
his ScarletCrimsonhair
waves gently
in the sudden gust of
W I N D
those SPARKLING, glazed
BlueBlueeyes
bright
against his tan skin
()
hazel eyes stare back
a kaleidoscope of
jade & gold & amber & black & emerald & violet & blue
ENTRANCING, ensnaring
him
in her so very carefully laid
n e t
()
you should run dear sir
run as fast as possible
awayawayaway
butbutbut
it's oh so very too late
he's captured
she has him now
&and&
he'll neverEverEver
get to
leave
()
they twirl
&and&
leap & glide & spin
dancing to a song
only they can
S I N G
a song of the ages
that only lovers
can hear
they DANCE & they SPIN
lost to the world
outside the
stage
NEVER
to be seen again
