Just one Dance

by Alexandra Jade Brewer   May 10, 2006


I didn't want to go over there
How would it end
So completely nervous
But the comfort that he lends

The conversation that we had
Just a few days ago
Told me we were just friends
But from it I hoped we'd grow

As though we were in grade 6
Dancing so far apart
But then he pulled me close to him
I could feel the beating of his heart

I felt so safe once again
A feeling I thought I lost
I never wanted to let go
Would this dance come at a cost

The arms that I was in
Were the ones of the amazing boy
The one that taught me how to smile
And that life is full of joy

He has know idea 'bout any of this
There are times I wish I could tell him
Like when he asked me where my smile had gone
And the color of my eyes had dimmed

But my mind is trapped
Inside of my heart
Afraid of loosing him
And being torn apart

As the song ends
He hugs me really tight
All I can do is hug him back
I'm so happy I feel so light

He's given me something amazing
Taught me how to live
No matter how we end up
He had something astounding to give

    Aww.. this poem was so sweet.. the emotions were really clear and the descriptions were good.. i also loved how it was kinda like a storyy.. :)

    But then he pulled my close to him
    ^ here, it should be "me" not "my" i think..

    And the color of my eyes had dimed
    ^ here, i think it should be "dimmed" not "dimed"

    He's given me something amazing
    Taught me how to live
    No matter how we end up
    He had something amazing to give
    ^ here, i think you shouldn't use the word amazing twice as it kind of ruins the effect!

    nice work, really enjoyed this write! 5/5
