Shall We Dance



In my heart the tango
Filling my mind with yearnings
Dancing to this music all night long
And I do so miss dancing
It fills one's mind one's soul with longings
A certain Je ne sais quoi!
In one's arms holding each other
Strutting our stuff
As if alone!
Concentrating on ours moves
Just feeling the music fleeting over you
Whispering in you ear as if it needed to
Looking into his eyes
Mesmerised by the look you see
Holding each other's closely
Not an illusion of light showing between us
No clever moves did we need
Just swaying feeling the music
In my minds mind, I can see He
Standing his ground aloof in his stance
His stare gazing straight into your eyes
Without a doubt in your mind
That he's the one's missing from your life
But when the music starts
Moving in unison our bodies our minds
As if nought has ever existed
Before the music started to play
With that unimaginable feeling
Feeling our hearts bursting
That animal magnetism taking over
Your heart pumping throbbing within your rib cage
You blood thick viscous magma in your veins
Attacking our senses
As we move undulating one's hips
Dancing indolently as he holds you
Your mind's not your own
Taking control of your senses
Lost in that moment in time
As in a dream in rhythm we moved
Between us nought existed but the music
Nothing at all as we strutted our stuff you & I
Reaching a crescendo the beating of our hearts
Boiling in our veins our blood
Our minds intoxicated
We existed for the moment, in some other plateau
An elevation rising into nothingness
Finally with a sigh our minds
Ahh! Riding on a gossamer cloud
Exhilaration within us
Like the leaves on a tree dancing
Whispering in the breeze
Reaching the heights in our element we'd be
Like a bolt skimming across the floor
Fibrillating skipping my heart
Like a thunderbolt...
Before dawn rushed in...
Shall we dance my lovely
Shall we!
