Beam,
of light illuminates the surroundings.
Pinkish glow casts reddish shadows
on hardwood floor, spotlight
paints a lazy eight, searching,
hunting for an image.
Shall we dance?
I take a hand, and the rest of the body
follows closely, follows me
in the steps, I hold on tightly,
bathed in pink glow,
I won't let go,
dancing slow.
A head rests on a shoulder,
a tempo loses its will,
a hazy look finds a hazy face
lost in a memory, or a fantasy,
or a reality that may or may not exisist.
Just moving back in forth,
slow rocking through red shadows,
eyes mist as they look away,
holding close they won't let go,
clutching together all they could find
was each other in a great big world
were so much can go so wrong,
and for so long they were alone
but on the floor they are home
in pinkish fire, reddish desire,
they have found a moment to own.
The mist turns to rain,
the memory is gone,
the fantasy remains.
Standing there on the empty dance floor,
the spotlight finds him, highlighting
that solitary figure, rocking slowly across the boards,
dancing alone.

Breathtakingly beautiful.
I think this is very eloquent and fine work.
There is a certain magic here...
and you've woven it into words delicately.
Bravo!
