The cut of your dress
As it clings to your curves
Slices my vision
Like a blade across my heart
 
With each nervous step
I move closer to you
The weight of the moment
Makes my feet feel like lead
 
Your look turns heads
All around the bar
And that green eyed
Old friend of mine
Growls

But then I'm with you
And the world flows on
Just you and I
the sounds of the bar
Are washed away by our tide.
 
And in this sublime still life
I could stay with you forever
Our prefect conceit,
Our lust, our love, our pain
Our pride and sorrow
Our dreams of tomorrow
Held in perfect stasis
Encased in crystal ice
 
For that one glorious moment
We are enraptured
My eyes locked with yours
Your smile, however slight,
Speaks volumes to me.
 
But then the bar rushes in
Our dance is broken
The spell torn
As you pass me
In a rush of perfume
And promise
 
My head turns,
Watches you walk away
And I'm left wondering
Who you are.
