In my dreams she dances,
Her body sways in rhythm,
She twirls with passion and grace.
Strands of her hair brush against my face,
Her eyes a glow from the fire within.
Into my soul she glances.
For a moment we are one.
For a single heartbeat I am whole.
Her blood burns within my veins
A breath and no more before it wanes.
She leaves me with an aching soul.
For a moment come and gone.
A lifetime of missed chances,
Cannot destroy the beauty within.
I brush a tear from her face.
I hold her hand as we both fall from grace.
Her tears fall in rhythm,
But in my dreams she still dances.
