the dance that is no dance
a crypto romance, unforgiven chance for illusory glance
they moved through the hall, in a gracefull thrall.
one step unlike the other, with no regard to bother
hands and feet in the air, crying laughing in despair
for one saught the other, in a dream of another
desperate for connection they saw their reflection
eye to eye, toe to toe, painting their deflection
the dance continued till the end, for they had to rant
a heart in two, an eye so blind, for how could one rant so kind
perhaps the story goes along, a melancholic burdens song
we strive for love and strive for gold, for fables and for lies untold
perhaps the souls endless grind, is its unraveling mind
