A Dance To Remember

Lately I’ve been wanting to find my rhyming voice again, so I wrote this. This Poem means a lot to me and I’m actually really proud of it. I hope you all enjoy. I haven’t really figured out the title yet, so the title of the blog “A Dance To Remember” is going to be my cliche temporary title. If you have any ideas, feel free to let me know.

I’m a little terrified. I must admit.
Stay still, let me take a photograph of this.

Kiss me like you mean it one last time.
I just fixed my make-up, don’t make me cry.

Pull away and hold me close.
Let’s dance the only way we know.

Spin me around, dip me down to the floor.
I don’t want to love you anymore.

My heart is breaking at your every touch.
I can’t help but wonder how you do this so much.

All eyes are on me, can they smell my fear ?
You call me beautiful as you lose hold of a tear.

I trail my fingers down your fair skin
Knowing with a sick feeling that I will never touch it again.

You ask me what’s wrong and I say I’m fine.
I’m dying to have one last good night.

History dances circles around us like secrets and sin.
We laugh under our breath, whispering “remember when..”

Those were the days that aren’t now.
Our laugh are too quiet, our screams too loud.

I watch and think about what you will do
When I kiss someone else and love someone new.

I can hear your accusation like static in my head.
All of it are things that have previously been said.

You will find a way to hurt me again, I’m sure.
I don’t believe your intentions have ever been pure.

So much time has passed yet nothing has changed.
Maybe it’s time I turned another page.

We both knew this wasn’t forever, no matter how much we claimed
I’m scared if we continue, we will drive each other insane.

But, for now let’s dance and love for the last time.
Tomorrow, my Darling, I will say good-bye.

  1. “I just fixed my make-up, don’t make me cry.” This piece is haunting, yet gorgeous.
