The Endless Dance

The house contains Hidden mirrored darkness And velvet vague Echoes within echoes, wanting Desperately To be remembered. Eyes within eyes I can see, Over my shoulder Sepia tinted yesterdays Of magnolia memories, Scented sensations And realisations Of far away And long ago And faces that I seem to know. Somewhere in the distance There is music playing, Such a haunting And bittersweet Melody Comes dancing Through dust laden Hallways , Making lace draped crystal Chandeliers Quiver in ecstasy, This ghostly gentle symphony That seems to be A part of me. And then I sense you by my side, Slipping your hands Into mine Together once again, And suddenly I realise In sweet delight And soft surprise, The eyes within the eyes I saw Were memories From a distant shore, Returning To my heart again To kiss my soul And heal my pain, My darling Shall we dance again?
