Fancy a dance, with the belle of the ball

She’ll twirl you around, so dizzy, you’ll fall

Straight into her charms, a guise, can’t you see?

This lovely young lady, is sheer mystery

You won’t get caught up, by her ribbons and lace

Beguiling, she captures,

With the look on her face

Piercing, her eyes, soften and yet

She still has you tangled, in her pirouette

Delicate beauty, who dances on air

She’s stolen your heart, with nary a care

Midnight passed so long ago

Still I keep writing, yes, I know

Eyes are weary from the day

Closing slowly, all the way

Pencil drops on paper’s lap

Perhaps it’s time to take a nap

No, wait, I simply cannot stop

Words will disappear, then pop

Out of my overloaded mind

Never again will I find

The ones to finish the final verse

Falling asleep is really a curse

I will lie here and listen

To the gentle sounds of night

I will lie here and imagine

I’m surrounded by your light

For it’s the ebony glow

That captivates my soul

Without your mere reflection

My heart cannot be whole

So in the evening hours

Those nights you turn away

I will lie here, waiting

For your return, I pray
