Last dance
Dance with me my darling
for I have considerable debt
the only redemption
I have is this moment
rest the ragged edge
of your skirt onto my bare foot
toes dug deep into engaged earth
and let me hear your vacant breath
recite the just off beat perfection
of love lost in asymmetry
the tiny scar above your lip
reminds the world to bring you
to my focus
as I am rendered helpless
by that micro metered
up-lift
in your smile
your laugh,
despite the armageddon of intimacy
invites a Jericho falling of walls
and I surrender
but
I still owe
and
can not be returned
so
dance with me my darling
and let every note count
for I have considerable debt
the only redemption
I have is this moment
rest the ragged edge
of your skirt onto my bare foot
toes dug deep into engaged earth
and let me hear your vacant breath
recite the just off beat perfection
of love lost in asymmetry
the tiny scar above your lip
reminds the world to bring you
to my focus
as I am rendered helpless
by that micro metered
up-lift
in your smile
your laugh,
despite the armageddon of intimacy
invites a Jericho falling of walls
and I surrender
but
I still owe
and
can not be returned
so
dance with me my darling
and let every note count
