Halloween Dance

May I dance with you?  It's Hallowen.
The moon is blue and I love you.

Place your hand on my lower back.
Draw me to you, don't hold back.

I've always admired you from afar.
Trick or treat, it was time to meet.

There's something in the air tonight.
Somehow being with you feels right.

Although we hide behind our masks,
neither of us can deny the fact.

Your breath is hot against my neck.
I struggle to keep emotions in check.

Step outside now the dance had ended.
In the cool of night, our heat is suspended.

Until you decide it's time to bite.
On Halloween night... how exactly right.

Almost a Gothic feel to your poem reminds me of the seductiveness in the old Dracula films. Great poem for Oiche Samhain.

But Viv... when one is in love, does one not crave to be possessed?
