Will You Dance With Me?

She hears the music playing

The melody is so loud.

She wonders where it's coming from~ it must be near.

Her heart is racing.

Her thoughts are chasing, the memory of a man, she once saw here.

Would he dance with her?

She remembered feeling how wonderful it would be, to be wrapped within his arms.

His eyes smiled, but she doubted.

For why would a man such as him choose her?

She froze in the place.

He was near.

She tried to utter words.

 He's passed her with out a glance.

She had stumbled at her chance.

Now here she is within these walls.

It's been years...all was thought lost.

But here again is her and him.

There he is standing with a grin.

Will she fail to catch his eye?

Will she again leave wondering "why?"

He's once again within her space.

Her heart thunders.

Her hands shake.

Her voice barely a whisper

She looks into his eyes and exhales,

"Will you dance with me?"

It's Just A Kiss

It's just a kiss!

Our eyes met and I knew.

I wanted to be kissing you.

You weren't sure what to think.

But you knew, too, I would be kissing you!

I approached, you didn't back away.

My eyes begging you to stay.

I told you once "I'm going to kiss you"

Then I step within your space.

I grabbed your hand, and wrapped it around me, for a tight embrace.

In a quick moment my lips were on yours

Soft, tender, sensual.

I hunger for more.

Our lips pressed together our tongues explore

Yes, I do want more.

I feel dizzy.

Am I breathing on my own or borrowing breath from you?

You step away and look at me

Am I the girl you wanted to see?

Only time will tell

Only the future will see

Will there be a you ~ with me?

Or is a kiss just a kiss

And that's all it will ever be?

Closed Heart

There's a door over there no one uses any more.

Some have forgotten it exists.

The locks were changed.

 Dust moved in.

Not even a strong wind could get you in.

The keeper cries, occasionally.

For once she shared the beauty that was within.

Till she learned it must be hidden.

Now, she waits!

No tears to shed, no laughter to hear.

Everything good is gathered ~ in there.

No one knows what she waits for.

Maybe, not even she.

Maybe a day when she might find, courage to open the door, and leave the key behind?

Maybe someone good will see.

All that she was meant to be.

But, till then she guards the door.

Never asking for anything more.

Who is strong enough to see,

The girl who hides behind a golden key?
