The Dance
Dancing together
But, to a different beat
To a much different song
I dance with you
Because I want to feel your
Magical ambiance
The chemistry I feel in your presence
Hypnotizes me
Your song has a faster melody
Acquiring a myriad of partners with which to dance
You want to square dance
While I desire to do the tango
We are partners in dance
By a fluke of nature
Became united by some fortuitousness force
No comradery
We are strangers
My sagacious intuition knows your intent
I alone possess no significance to you
I am only a partner to take to the dance
In your egocentric mind
You think your artifice has escaped my attention
But, I am fully aware
Of your ploy to use me for the benefits
My presence will bring
So that you may procure what you truly desire
