Dance With Me

Dance with me. Hold me in your arms one last time. Let me close my eyes, and imagine being here forever. Wrap your arms around me and pull me in close. Let me breathe in your sent, so intoxicating. Let me just pretend. Let me hold you, at least until the song is through. I wish this song could last forever. Every word, burned into my memory. I will appreciate every lyric, every note, for it is the finale of our journey together. 

The song ends. You let me go, and turn to dance with another. I am left on the dance floor alone. Still breathless.
