Dancing alone in the moonlight

by Alyssa Gamble   Apr 14, 2007


Hall way passings,
hidden smiles forced even on my most tired of mornings
time stands still
in the possibilities of what if?'

What if we were together
arms tangled along my lotioned skin
breaths harmonized in the moment
laughs to fill empty spaces of sorrow
the security of a man
the feeling of love pulsing through my veins once again
hearts solid with lust
reassurance on my low self esteem days
that I am pretty in your eyes
the eyes that I see before I drift away with slumber
and I awake to see smiling the return of my presence.

I wouldn't have to imagine, it all be true.
that you were here, and I was with you
I wouldn't have to dance alone in the moonlight,
or close my eyes hoping you'd appear.

what am I to do?
your walking away too fast and I don't know how to tell you
the desires I fantasize,
our moment of time has stopped,
you continue walking down the hallway lined in a sea of students.
and I stand alone
gasping for air
and for another chance to see you again
