The Last Dance

by Wasted Fake Smiles   May 31, 2006


He takes her hand in his, as he pulled her to him,
They turn down the music, as the lights they dim.
They dance as one, as he whispers in her ear,
"Baby, I love you, with me have no fear.

You know you are my everything"
She replied "I know, that's why I wear this ring!"
As the song comes to an end, they see only they remain,
As the faces around them are different, nothing around is the same.

She's a little freaked out, but remains by her love,
As the two of them float high and above-
everyone else. As everyone looks and points,
As the two lovers bodies conjoint.

She wakes from her dream, as a tear falls down,
For she knows that her lover, is deep under ground.
He died for her, and now must live with the guilt,
As she lays bundled up, in his grandma's quilt.

That was their last dance, when they became prom queen and king,
The ring she wore, was their wedding ring.
However, on the way home, as he walked her to the door,
Some bum asked for money, pointed a gun, and asked for more.

They gave all they had, only the ring remained,
He said, "give it to me", as he itched his tangled mane.
The man in love, said, "no you have enough!
I'd rather you shoot me, I can take it I'm tough."

The bum followed his command, and shot him in the heart,
The reason why the two lovers are now apart.
The last dance, their last chance for love,
As a tear comes from her eye, as she stares at the ceiling above.

PLEASE R/C! I'll return the favor!
