The Stripper

A dark room as lights hit the stage, I see an angel that takes, my breath away, Her eyes are only hidden by a mask, I am frozen in time, I feel your eyes piercing into my soul, Drawing me into a hold I, Can not escape from, I feel the desire the raw passion, And the endless emotion, As the fire scorches thru my body, I surrender I am all yours, You move closer, I can not speak, You slowly crawl on the stage towards me, Your eyes melting my heart, Welcoming me into your world, I walk towards you under your spell, Our souls connect, As if we are the only two people, In the room I see your smile, That very familiar smile that smirk, I remember from a long time ago, From a different time, Bending down lightly touching my cheek, She whispers you found me, That feeling can not be denied, A love so pure that has with stood, The many centuries of waiting, As destined by the Gods above, You have captured my heart again, I am all yours.

Yes and no ....yes the observer very attracted and because of the mask their eyes were hidden but when the stripper smiled all came back....in the poem it says I'm paraphrasing... That familiar smile that smirk from long ago from a different time.....in that time it was love at first sight but it was a past life...
