Behind the mask

Behind the mask

I walk into the ballroom, I'm at the masquerade, then I see her standing there, all is left in shade

Killer dress, sexy heels, she hides behind a darkened mask, beauty personified, to meet her is my task

I'm captivated by her look, she glides across the room, leaving the men wanting her and the ladies left in gloom

Her curves are so sexy, I watch her swish and sway, all I can do is look at her, and pray she comes my way

Then at a distance our eyes meet across a crowded floor, she gestures me towards her, what man could hope for more

At last we are face to face, only a mask to hide her smile, we chat, we dance, we share a drink, tonight has been worthwhile

I came here to pass the time, but a Goddess I have found, a Angel here from heaven, walking on the ground

As the evening draws to an end, I wonder dare I risk to ask, can i see the beauty, who hides behind the mask

But just as I go to ask, she lifts her mask away, at last I've seen the beauty, who I'll remember come what may
