The midnight sun rises, sheds its light

As I sit here, making music, in the night

He plays a fiddle, made from thine bones

While my guitar strums, though not alone

A ghostly vision, stands near and plays

The fountain bubbles in mysterious ways

I feel the fire and flora, as they swoon

I can’t help notice, what of this moon?

Does it bring to me, a glimpse, too far?

Or a warning, played, through my guitar

So many men, this way have passed

I dare wonder now, am I the last?

She found serenity, when she took the stage

With each graceful move, she would disengage

Lost to the dance, alone, no one else included

Caught up in the music, her world, so secluded

From all that had happened, and all that will

With a simple pirouette, and such elegant skill

She glided across the floor, a Prima Ballerina

Reminded them all, of the goddess, Athena

The eyes of those, who watched, and stared

Knew her beauty, could never be compared

They fell for her, she never paid them any mind

She created pandemonium, of a different kind

The air is heavy, as music fills the room
The loud sounds from the DJ, take up space
Holding her gaze briefly, but he dare not assume
He knew she could be, his one saving grace

She blushed, like petals of a rose bouquet
Watching him walk, across the crowded floor
Trying very hard, though, she couldn’t look away
She felt his stare, straight through, to her core

Afraid to do something, if he must confess
He bowed his head, in silent despair
Not sure what to say, so she would say yes
He quietly stood, next to this maiden, fair

Clearing his throat, gathering up his nerve
He simply asked her if she cared to dance
Graciously, accepting, with quite the verve
You never know, unless you take the chance

The melody kept playing with her mind

Bringing tears to her porcelain face

A memory, of a man, who once was so kind

Now he was, simply, her only disgrace

Warned by so many, to keep up her guard

She ignored them, said they were wrong

Soon to find out, life really was so hard

And he left her, with nothing but a song

Each night, she dressed, in the mirror, wept

Seems for her, it was the same, every day

Tis what happens, when you lack self-respect

And with time, the music faded away

The beautiful strings of a harp, sing softly upon her soul

A composition, from within, both hands begin to play

Her fingers, lost in the music, a face so angelic, whole

And I watch her eyes dance, as the melody steals her away
