He danced by himself,
in the back of the room,
thinking of memories, happy,
to brighten the gloom.

Saturday nights.
Nights to be alive,
dancing a Waltz,
the Twist, Bop or Jive.

Slipping backward,
into the darkness,
of where I am,
unaware.

Searching as
I am falling,
into darkness,
and I no longer care.

With Gusto

In better times.

And it goes on.

Lonely are those,
who shelter in place,
without the benefit
of seeing a new face.

Go into hiding.
Don't get involved.
Stay in your room,
a mystery unsolved.

Words which crawl
or fly by
a page,
go awry!

Standing in the corner,
your hat upon your head.
Why do you stay away?
Did you think I had fled?

Alongside me you came.
You left me, like a Lord,
saying nothing,
not even a single word.

How can I explain,
if I don't know you?
Not knowing where to be,
where to go, what to do.

The World had beaten
a path to his door.
The problem was,
he didn't live there anymore.

He had moved away,
to a smaller town,
for he was tired of the attention,
the World had found.

He left his friends,
who he had for a long time.
Looking for a freedom,
he thought would be divine.

Was it the right thing to do?
He thought it was
and so he would pursue,
a new direction and cause.

All the love there is.
Don't ration your love.
Share love with each other.
If there is love in your heart,
share it with others.
Love is unlimited.

She danced with abandon,
a yellow ribbon in her hair,
twirling about the floor,
floating heavenly, unaware.

The music lively,
providing a rhythm nell,
gliding across the dance floor,
a magic moment under her spell.

Her lips,
painted red,
made me believe,
she soon would wed.

Wed someone,
rich and pure,
like a Fairy Tale,
life will endure.
