The Concert

The ambiance was charged with excitement 
As captivating music impregnated the air
The urge to boogie beyond their control
Grooving to the beat, dancing truly unaware

Lost to the music, all inhibitions departed
Harmony pulsating through their veins
Singing along with the entertainers
When the band belted out refrains

Meeting of eyes in mutual appreciation
A ballad crooned with remarkable grace
Skin flushed and kissed with perspiration 
Magnetically pulled into a sweet embrace 

Arms wrapped pleasantly around each other
Melody inspired, moving in dreamlike states
Comfortable like they been dancing for years
Except for matching accelerated heart rates

Existing within a moment totally in tune
Blaring music only enhancing their elation
A memory made worthy of storing in the banks
Mutual passions on which to build a foundation

Aaah, it so happened; love swelled within, right before hundreds. The music, singer, oh he nearly made me throw my bra. I didn't. Long Beach, CA sports arena. You captured ambiance and passion so smooth.
