I. She never looked as beautiful as she did that night Sparkling pink dress Her smile made the gods envious She seemed to glide around the hall Full of femininity Full of beauty II. Across the hall sit’s a half-drunk man in a rented suit His life is going nowhere Love just never seemed to happen for him Year after year you could smell his virginity The occasion is a wedding But for him, it is like he stands over a grave III. The festivities forces him to raise his glass He tells everyone stories About his best friend About the times they have spent together It is as if he is giving a eulogy (If only he knew how true that really is) IV. The dance! The dance! The public celebration Of hidden romance Man and wife hip-to-hip The rhythm of the moment Moving to a beat His activity Her receptivity Their love in bloom He feels the sweat on her back (Dancing is so erotic) A couple of minutes and the song is over V. Inebriated from the feeling of love in the room And with the help of a few cocktails He addresses her: Would you like to dance? His voice exposes his inability for these types of things Their naked hands meet Her soft skin contains the power to heal Suddenly his life make sense Today he has lost a friend But gained a soul mate http://darkenedorange.blogspot.com/ [This message has been edited by DarkenedOrange (04-23-2008 02:11 AM).] |
