Seductive Shadows

Midnight's mystery, she wears with grace
A black dress that hugs her curves in place
That makes my heart race, 
Even by a lock, in her gaze... 
Silky fabric, smooth as her skin
Invites my eyes to linger,
And sets my soul ablaze! 

Her curves, a gentle slope, to manoeuvre
Make me wish to endure,
Than to subdue to her seductive way
As she moves, the dress clings and sways... 
A whispered promise, of secrets untold
Unfold as my dream
That would be real, if the night,
Ended with at least just a dance
To quench my fright! 

The dress, a shadow, that follows her form
A dark embrace, that accentuates her charm
A subtle rustle, as she walks by
A sensual whisper, that makes my heart sigh...
If only she would let me even
Touch her thigh, so that I'd be fine! 

Her eyes, bright jewels, shining bright and bold
Reflecting the night, with a story untold
A smile, a living treasure of a tale to be told... 
To hearts of men, that are cold, 
Look! It's her that I adore
For she's my Cinderella
Not Angela the ballerina, we all know! 

In black, she's radiant, 
Vibrant as the glowing stars
That add color to my dark sky 
In my lonely night,
For she lights up my world
Beyond words, I can live to write
Indeed the girl in a black dress,
You, I'll always think about
Even in the drought of a million years!
