Lost

Water cascaded across her brow
And dripped unto his lips
And her words held a vow
Dug in his hands in her hips

As they pranced around
He supported her lift
So she wouldn’t drown
Their movements were swift

She leapt away in a blur
And he traveled unconsciously 
Towards her words that slur
And speak her love honestly

His arms trap in her waist
Her hand trace the ground while dipped
Then her lips traveled for a taste
He realized she had him whipped

Then they were pulled apart by hands
That seemed to pull them out of their trance
The space between them expands
Ruins their memorized dance

But surely that’s no challenge for true love
He finds her in his arms once more
But then he transforms to the world above
She lost the man she once did adore
