The trumpet sounds. Her soft voice caresses my being, The bass heavy in my chest.
Velvet touches my skin Feet painfully arched in tall shoes, The pain worth it. I stand tall, in your direct line of sight
Blonde hair glowing, whipping Around. I move my body, Skin sparkling from the makeup I have applied, Looking to you through My lashes.
I look away And that’s when you Look at me.
Your fingers dance over The keys. You sing quietly into the microphone. Spotlight soaking your skin, Flickering across your vision.
I see you And you see me, Seeing you Seeing me
We dance like this all night.
At the end, Our eyes follow each other as we both Walk away. To get to where we must be going. The phrase, “We’ll meet again” comes through My thoughts strongly.
Another time, another day. I hope our paths cross. I won’t forget how Our gazes intertwined.
I’ll say, “Hello it’s nice to see you again” You’ll know exactly what I mean Locked in an eternal dance with me.
