Dancing 'Till Dawn With All the People I Love

I wear love like a birthmark, 
With pride on my breast, 
This dance until dawn, 
Bids it sweat and salsa, 
Silently sway, 
Then delirium scream. 

Dancing till dawn with 
All the people I love, 
Avalanches my heart, 
Carries me away 
On wings of snow-blind doves 
In perfectly framed abandon. 

Dancing till dawn with 
All the people I love; 
I would tender my soul 
For this timeless instant 
To chain the end 
at bay.
