The Dance

One boy
One girl
One song
One last dance
Two lonely hearts beating wildly..
To the rhythms of the dance floor

It's crazy how they are so in love
And deep in denial

"It's just a dance" he whispers
Just some people beating a leather covered hollow wood
.... Is it?

She makes the first move
He hesitates...
She's unsure
She falters;
In an instant, his hands go around her waist
A bit too quick for a stranger
It's just reflex.. He has quick reflexes
... Maybe?
His heart is racing
Her body is quivering
But she keeps up with the rhythm
"I will enjoy this dance" she's thinking

Now they are moving together
Left, right, back and forward
... unsure of tomorrow...
An awkward dance it is

Faces expressionless like the statue of liberty
A slight trembling of the hand reveals suppressed feelings
Unspoken words on trembling lips
It's insane; in spite of pent-up words threatening to burst right through them, they refuse to speak

The atmosphere around them is charged
A tiny spark and the fire will start; it will spread like wildfire in the dry Savannah
...
And then relief will come

Because the tears will wash away the hurt and the rain will wash away the tears.
