When I stand alone in a darkened room My arms enfold a distant dream The music plays a familiar tune A variation on a theme I dance in the dark with the empty air The Goddess of Night with new moon eyes Her kisses as sweet as a midnight breeze And in my ear she softly sighs: 'Dance with me as the music plays' Dance and I will ease your pain.' I will dance until the music ends I must dance 'til only the shadows remain |

Her kisses as sweet as a midnight dream.....loved that line, enjoyed this one. The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose...--Hada Bejar |

Dancing with the empty air, thats me..This created a clear vision. Sad and beautiful at once. "Keep dreams alive, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly." author unknown |
