Dancing In This Heart

I dove into the darkness for I wished to see If the life on that side was the life for me I tasted all it’s pleasures let them consume my mind Turned my back on all I loved, left those I loved behind It started like a dream that filled me with a dance I was completely captivated by the dark romance Everything that ever was truly seemed to be Out there for the taking waiting just for me I ran long and I ran hard strutting through it all Let my soul pay the price behind a prison wall I was just a simple wizard caught up in a game Just incase you don’t know Jughead is my name I have made my enemies and I left my ghost I have taken Lucifer and nicknamed him the Host The Host of Addiction is it not clear to see Everything about that word spells misery Then one day I met someone met her just by chance I soon found myself lost to her seductive dance In her arms I met someone who had been buried on a shelf As I traveled through her soul she introduced me to myself We noticed in other’s eyes a tiny ray of light As we found in each other the will to try and fight I dove into the darkness for I wished to see If the life on that side was the life for me In that life I met someone who taught me to dance Then led me through darkness into the light of romance That is why today I write for her this little rhyme Letting her know she is still the dream dancing in this heart of mine © 2007 Michael Jordan All Rights Reserved
