Shadow's Dance
The flames cast shadows on the wall
Flickering of flames music for the dark ball
Silence for the dark light
Twirling of a shadow's flight
Nothing disturbed in its wake
The shadows just flicker and shake
Taking a multitude of shapes
The shifting leaving many agape
The dance lasts until fires die
But in the dark shadows still fly
A ballet of the dark
No dancer leaving a mark
But even it must end
For even shadows tear and rend
Flickering of flames music for the dark ball
Silence for the dark light
Twirling of a shadow's flight
Nothing disturbed in its wake
The shadows just flicker and shake
Taking a multitude of shapes
The shifting leaving many agape
The dance lasts until fires die
But in the dark shadows still fly
A ballet of the dark
No dancer leaving a mark
But even it must end
For even shadows tear and rend
