Stay With Me, Sway With Me

Stay With Me, Sway With Me

A Poem by John Stussy
"

Just a random slow dance poem that came to me before I fell asleep. Enjoy the fruits of my blasted insomnia haha...

"

 

 

Please stay with me, sway with me,

On this make-shift dance floor.

Perfection is no reality

But these moments with you

Come oh so close to that word.

So softly the music binds us,

An understanding only those dancing

In this manner can fully attain.

Those minutes spent enchanted by you

Ensnare my memories when we are apart.

Wherever I am my thoughts turn to you,

And of course, a smile graces my lips.

I wonder… are you smiling as well?

Is your expression akin to the one you had

As we danced away the time together?

With all my being, I wish it is so.

Even now I lay wide awake

Wishing to live such a dream again.

On our make-shift dance floor,

Please stay with me, sway with me.

Ah! It sounds like a soft chanting Frank Santra song....the title alone seduced me to come and read. Needless to say, I loved it. Your romantic words are always purely poetic. So beautiful. I can't say enough. I can see you as a poet version of Nicholas Sparks. I have probably told you that once before.......

AAwwwww, now this one was a sweet one to read, very personal and yes, I'm going to say it, cute. A small poem but such a wealth of longing, dude, you need to find someone to dance with or you'll suffer from dancer's depression (take this from a dancer) and it will soon consume all your waking moments!! haha, just kidding, there is no such thing, but to write a poem like this, it had to have been a special moment, and I'd dare say that she's grinning like a coon wherever she is, haha silly girl, why shouldn't she?
