Dancing With You

 

as the music begins to play

he draws me near and we begin to sway

his arms around me, his eyes closed, he has no clue

he doesn't know  that I'm dancing with you

his lips gentle upon my ear

whispering of love, but I can't hear

he tells me he loves me and I know that it's true

but in my heart I am dancing with you

the dance goes on and I play along

but in my soul plays a different song

I look at him and cannot help myself

I wish silently that he was someone else

My time with you didn't last

the love we shared belongs in the past

and I don't know what I am going to do

'cause in my dreams I am dancing with you

he loves me, and his love is true

but would he still love me if he knew

that in the dreams and in my heart

I am dancing, always dancing with you?

Oh man, This is a GREAT poem...I still have chills 2 mins after reading. There are so many things that I like about this poem... to many to comment on...So I will just say one thing that I think takes away from the words of this breath taking poem is the blue lettering...Its kind of distracting giving the writer a younger feeling like they wrote with crayons

Wonderfully written... it really hurts when you want to be somewhere else then where you are, the conflict and agony can be relentless... you expressed the feeling quite well.

Hi Carrie, your poem flows so well and you bring up emotions I had from long ago when I once felt the same. I can not find anything that I would change or any suggestions that I would make. I think this is beautiful and sad and complete.
