You and I have shared a dance
On the edge of romance
On a cold, autumn night
I felt the fire burning bright
And I saw the passion in your eyes
It made my heart fly away
I dreamt of you sitting near
Of whispered words in my ears
It gave me hope for a change
But as those days passed us by
I felt those words were only lies
And you never say what you mean
I have seen
Love that's hard to read
And I believe
It's such a weary place to be
And you don't understand
How hard it is to reprimand
A love that's meant to be
I thought I saw you standing there
You looked at me but didn't care
It's just a game to you
Sighing by my windowside
I tried so hard but could not hide
The tears I've cried in vain
I'm not sure what's really true
I tried to see, but I'm confused
I'm caught in the web you've weaved
Your lies decide my every move
Your eyes conceal the shaded truth
Then I realized we both are caged
You're prisoner to your own deceit
You live the truth you think to be
Real in your own lonely world
I think your eyes have tried to speak
The words your heart feel are weak
But those words would set us free
I have seen
Love that's hard to read
And I believe
It's such a weary place to be
And you don't understand
How hard it is to reprimand
A love that's meant to be
Now and then I will glance
To memories of our special dance
And I'll feel warmth in my soul
Sometimes my eyes will spy
That passion building in your eyes
And it gives me hope once again
And through my heart's shallow pain
I know that love will still remain
It's just waiting to come alive
But you and I have shared a dance
On the edge of romance
On a cold, autumn night

Good write.
Beautifully and honetly expressed.
' I have seen
Love that's hard to read
And I believe
It's such a weary place to be
And you don't understand
How hard it is to reprimand
A love that's meant to be...'
I liked these lines a lot.
I liked what they are saying, and also the way they sound--- very lyrical.

"You're prisoner to your own deceit
You live the truth you think to be
Real in your own lonely world"
I think I lived there once ... Opening and closing with the same words works very well here. It adds to the reminiscence that the poem conveys. Nice job.
