Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

The Dancer Swirls

Dancing with vigour the dancer swirls
Sweat glistening, passions inside rose
Catching shadows as within skirt furls 
Around my heart as locks you impose

Sweat glistening, passions inside rose
Fixation befalls, this beleaguered soul  
Around my heart as locks you impose
I glimpse your eyes, of blackened coal

Fixation befalls; this beleaguered soul  
As within me; the heart that you stole
I glimpse your eyes, of blackened coal 
My heart collapses, as it seeks its goal 

As within me; the heart that you stole
Spirits raging, within your heated eyes
My heart collapses; as it seeks its goal
Beguiling me, with all of your false lies 

Spirits raging, within your heated eyes
Never to be free until the fire subsides 
Beguiling me; with all of your false lies
Atoms split; as our souls make divides

Never to be free until the fire subsides
Catching shadows; within clothes furls 
Atoms split; as our souls make divides
Dancing with vigour, the dancer swirls
