Just For You Poetry

She hears music playing; her shadow on the wall
waiting to be asked to the shadow ball
It has been so long since an arm around her waist
dancing cheek to cheek as fingers interlace
She lights a jasmine candle and places it by her side
Waiting for another shadow while she dances teary eyed
The flame begins to dance within the naked night
enticing each other as they tango and incite
Spinning and twirling around the candlelit room
sweet fragrance seduces as love begins to bloom
Wick of night disappears in the midnight hour
One shadow dancing; a lonely wallflower
Always to be a solo ballerina.
never to tango to a concertina
