Dance With Me

The music plays

As our hearts sway

Back and forth

To the sound of

Empty fingertips

Our eyes sparkle

To the tone of

Guitar strings and

Vanilla Twilight

How does this time

Pass in this desolate

Victrola of spinning woo?

Through novels of Shakespeare

And time...

You'll see that

You'll be the one

For me.

This is very lovely! The words sway with the movement and voice you have put to it.
