Wild Heartbeat

With you I was there When you sang that rapturous song You stirred my heart so deeply A longing you had etched  On the age-old bark of my pain That you brought a temporary salve How could I resist such tempting relief? With you I was there When you glided with your snow-laden feet To swipe away  pitiful realities Took me to heights of better days So lovely, how lovingly The twirls of imaginations you created In the dance floor of my emotions. With you I was there Secured my joy Locked my heart But the pain ever constant  Banged on the door of the vulnerable I answered, "Please, not this soon I can go." The music is still playing. The dance is still gliding. Wrapped up in the moment so beautifully." But to you my mournful longing was only a hollowed, pitiful begging. With the passing of time My heart has not gone cold Illuminated by your transcending light Your voice is still my melody Your gait is my joyous promenade Splendors to last me  One more sweet imagination One more wild heartbeat to take me Back to your world.
