Across The Span Of Time (Part-IV)

Copyright 2012 by:  Mark V Sheldon


Suddenly, you’re on the stage
I’m playing keys, you’re all the rage
Our song’s a hit!  Glad we didn’t quit!

People dance, the liquor flows
We took a chance, now sold out shows
Our song’s a hit!  Glad we didn’t quit!

Winking at me with your smirky smile
Blowing you a kiss across the mile
Ain’t we got style!

Who would guess that you and I
Would make the press and black & white
Our song’s a hit!  Glad we didn’t quit!

I wake up to the echo
Your voice fading away
The room I’m in, I don’t know
But here, I cannot stay

Confused, I look around me
What is this ghastly dream?
Where are you?  This cannot be!
My name I hear you scream…

I run towards where I heard you
Within the mirror I see
I dive into and break through
To your reality…

Quite a flourish at the finish Mark. You had us all happy with the turn of events, and then threw a bucket of ice water in our face. Whoa!

Mark,
nothing like a a good twist to set us back on our heels howling for more. You are a master of captivation!  You keep your readers hungry...
