It all slows down as you enter,
my breathing increases.
The outside breeze sends chills
racing through my body,
extingushing the flame within.
The music slow, the lights dim.
Shadows move in harmony
on the floor.
From across the room our eyes connect,
you hand in his.
Swiftly moving in tun with the silent melody.
As the song ceases he leaves your side,
for the girl in the corner.
Tonight, you and I are alone.
Tears roll softly down your cheek,
earasing the mask you so delicately applied.
you look at me,
and I at you.
For minutes skipped like heartbeats, so out of tune
yet so beautiful to listen too.
Another gentle smile and you turn away.
Why won't you notice when my cries are so loud?
Why are you the only one not to hear them?
