The Dance

This was originally a song I wrote so it has his and hers parts but it ended up as a poem.

Man:

"Will you do a dance with me 

I bet it's one you've never seen

It's unlike any other dear

The only trick is you have to dream"

Spinning now like pinwheels 

Fancy fabrics flying 'round

"Hold me if you're dizzy dear

I won't let you hit the ground"

"Sway with me 

Hand on my heart

Stay with me 

Don't you fall apart"

Woman:

"This is make believe 

Has been from the start"

Man:

"Don't you worry Baby

Just keep your hand on my heart"

The music fades away now 

Or was there really music here at all

Woman:

"I swear that there were people here
Weren't we just at the Ball?'

Man:

"No sweet girl, it's just you and I

There wasn't anyone at all"

"Sway with me 

Hand on my heart

stay with me 

Don't you fall apart"

Woman:

"This is make believe 

Has been from the start"

Man:

Don't you worry Baby

Just keep your hand on my heart

that dance is a great metaphor for romance: "it's just you and I". Love it.

like an amazing dream I never want to wake from, drugs without the negative aspect. Please write more like this adventure between the two hehe I love this read.

Very cool! I feel as if this could use some more grammar as guidance.

I really liked this poem! I liked the little twist at the end and the creepy kind of feel it has! Love it:) x

A amazing poem. Gave life to the dance. I like the set-up of the poem. Create place, characters and the dance. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I really appreciate your reviews they're always so confidence building. I was really worried about this poem because it's so different from everything that I've done before. I'm really glad that you liked it:)
