We Slowly Dance

I hear your melancholy in the strings.
My mind's eye wanders, and I dance
In my imagination.
Immidiate attraction.
I wheel me closer, you're in trance,
Playing your music, my heart sings.
I see your music in the moonlight,
Soft sounds of longing and of fear.
I catch your eye,
And see you cry.
I wipe away a solitary tear.
I want so much to make you feel right.
I lift my hand and touch your knee, gently.
Your eyes meet mine, bent slightly down.
I pull you to me,
this feels so free.
Your music forgotten, as is the frown,
You grab the handles of my chair, quickly.
While the music is only a memory now,
You dance with me, slow and exciting.
Our mouths finally meet,
Our eyes lovingly greet.
A smile in your eyes, soft and longing,
Wiping sadness and hurt from your brow.
