Dreamer's Ball

There she was, like a vision
entering into the room, the crowd
Yet, she stood alone, a diamond
shining far more brilliant than another.

She looked towards me, I shook.
Will she come and let me give her
my hand and myself for the evening?
Will she grace me with a dance?

She does and midnight came quickly,
but she remained and adorned my arm.
As the music of the night played on, 
we were alone in a room full of people.
