Dance Dear Dreamer
She twirls and flutters
 
 hair FLYING ~ heart POUNDING
 
 a shadow of the night
 
 brought to
 
 life
 
 ()
 
 she dances
 
 eyelashes casting shadows on her
 
 palepaleskin
 
 she's
 
 I N T A N G I B L E
 
 is she even real {you wonder silently}
 
 she seems to be nothing
 
 butbutbut
 
 a
 
 dreamillusiondelusion
 
 a
 
 silhouette against the light of day
 
 ()
 
 you reach out a hand
 
 you beckon
 
 she doesn't seem to see you
 
 or anything you do
 
 so you climb the
 
 WindingTwiningsteps
 
 to the stage
 
 where she dances
 
 all alone
 
 &and&
 
 she sees you
 
 suddenly
 
 &and&
 
 beckons you
 
 (yes, you)
 
 over
 
 ()
 
 you're caught in this WHIRLWIND
 
 ofofof
 
 passion & joy & giddiness & floating
 
 it's like nothing
 
 nothing
 
 you've ever felt
 
 neverEverEver
 
 ()
 
 She curtsies
 
 inky, silky ebony hair
 
 BRUSHING, caressing
 
 her PalePaleskin
 
 a testament
 
 to
 
 the darkness
 
 that she was born to
 
 to the darkness
 
 in which she lives

 he bows
 
 caught in her
 
 deceptively beautiful WEB of
 
 floatingfallingflying lies
 
 his ScarletCrimsonhair
 
 waves gently
 
 in the sudden gust of
 
 W I N D
 
 those SPARKLING, glazed
 
 BlueBlueeyes
 
 bright
 
 against his tan skin
 
 ()
 
 hazel eyes stare back
 
 a kaleidoscope of
 
 jade & gold & amber & black & emerald & violet & blue
 
 ENTRANCING, ensnaring
 
 him
 
 in her so very carefully laid
 
 n e t
 
 ()
 
 you should run dear sir
 
 run as fast as possible
 
 awayawayaway
 
 butbutbut
 
 it's oh so very too late
 
 he's captured
 
 she has him now
 
 &and&
 
 he'll neverEverEver
 
 get to
 
 leave
 
 ()
 
 they twirl
 
 &and&
 
 leap & glide & spin
 
 dancing to a song
 
 only they can
 
 S I N G
 
 a song of the ages
 
 that only lovers
 
 can hear
 
 they DANCE & they SPIN
 
 lost to the world
 
 outside the
 
 stage
 
 NEVER
 
 to be seen again
