Find Me In the Lyrics

Shadows seeking solitude
sunlight filters fleeting dream
soft endless kisses
are more real than they seem

Awake but still in the stillness
missing moments long past
through stained glass windows
smiles seldom forever last

Dusty records skipping with 
every floor board squeak
dancing my way ever closer
nearer your soul  to peek

In bits of laughter loved
from the orchard dripped
ripe hints of heaven
I ungracefully tripped

Broken arrows slightly felt
but deflected just enough
where pain laid low
magically I remained tough

Lost and found but still around
hidden in the lyrics down low
under guise of star struck eyes
the whispers still somehow show

Dusty records skipping with 
every floor board squeak
dancing my way ever closer
nearer your soul  to peek

Falling in deep  a sweet melody
when you're ready   I'll be
awaiting upon your dance floor
for you   to fall into me

Waltzing slowly  
uninterrupted
just you
just me

You really know how to turn a phrase Tim. So beautifully written and well expressed this pulls the reader right into it. Lovely. A seven from me. God Bless and thanks so much for the kind words on my "Say Whut?" Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Been off line trying to recoup my energy awhile. JB

Nicely done Tim, I could imagine a melody as I read this and two on the dance floor close, slow dancing, melting into the landscape.
