The Dance

Ever softly, so distracting 
This cause effect 
Response reacting.. 
As smaller stones 
Thrown in larger pools..
Rippling currents
And dancing fools..
Passions hot enough 
To ride the lightning 
Bodies dancing
Limbs entwining.
Clever beguiling 
Convincing illusion.. 
Somehow still lost 
Within confusion.
Polar opposites 
Attracted together.
Hot and cold clashing
Thunderous pleasure..
Oil on water
Looking for flame.
Beautiful countenance.
A heart that knows pain.
Sunshine and moonlight
Dancing forever..
The way we do when we’re together.
Frozen moments
In pictures framed.
Candlelight dancing on window panes.
And here I sit,
With none to blame.
Wondering if you..
Feel the same..
