Beautiful Moves

by [She.Falls.Asleep]   Jan 5, 2006


I'm gonna help you cause you said I could,
I'm gonna help you cause I know I should,
I'm gonna wipe each tear and give to you my every breath,
All through life, Right up to death,
Stand here, so were shoulder to shoulder,
Remember the pain of the fight now soldier,
You ended that war, now do it once more,
Take my hand, Walk through the door,
Ignore the scream, Ignore the shout,
It's always going to be about,
With a squeeze of the hand, a kiss of the cheek,
I'll try my best to make your future less bleak,
'Smile now Soldier,' you're lover once said,
While watching the webcam while you lied still in bed,
She knew you couldnt hear, but she spoke out loud,
She spoke so softly to the emptiness around,
Now back to the struggle she entwines fingers,
And fights off the fears and sadness that lingers,
Then she does something she can't believe,
Takes you in her hold and begins to lead,
To not the waltz, the samba, no particular dance,
But the most beautiful moves, all in this trance,
She can see in his eyes the hurt she's made,
But she can't leave him so she's always stayed,
Selfish maybe, but she just can't turn away,
If she did she'd look back and not see the next day,
So here she is, a few inches from his face,
Not paying attention to her surroundings and place,
Until she realises she's by her screen,
And not totaly remembering what her minds just seen,
With flushed cheeks, and round wide eyes,
She returns to her friends, with a smile to disguise,
Her embarrassment from her fantasy,
That no one else will ever know or see.

    Wow, I really liked that, a few lines didnt flow quite right, but the message, the rest of it, the imagery! It was superb in all literary senses, I moved with the character, it was like I was there, and at the end when it snapped back to the reality, Magnifique! 5/5 Adding you to favs
