Beat #5

Your eyes are so dark. You stared

with that sweet quite smile. Eyes interlocked.

Felt unveiled. Why?

Beat #4

You: Intoxicatingly dangerous. You are the color

I can’t use enough without destroying balance.

I crave you.

How to fall in love

Start slow        beat   by   beat
                                    What’s the sound?
Listen carefully
roll along a pulse

Beat

If space shrinks:
                  Lock those eyes
                  hit a smile
Are you dancing?

Evoke mahogany bass      flow     loop      resonate
                                                                Edge the tone
                                         high   and   low
                                         wild while soft
                                                sweet
                                                  hot

I will fall again

I fall under the influence of the blues  
    beats and sounds  
this silence and that elusive sharp note  

I wait until you feel as I do  
until you observe rhythms in the moon  
  until my hand is held by yours  

We dance at a melancholic tune
full of jazz-richness
bursting tango-passion
with a slow bolero-beat

The lights are dimmed slowly
We are in a fantasy-looking forest
You lead my steps
I follow with little resistance

One more turn
We are back
  Music  StopS  
You look into my eyes       smile

Time  StopS  with the silence
Your right hand refuses to leave my waist
My body feels the warmth of your touch

Soft sounds reinitiate the clocks

You and I   dance
       fallen under the influence of music

I am smiling
 I’m falling

You pulled me closer
  You fell

We
Dance
   under the influence
Ready to fall again

Prompt > dVerse Poetics – Under the Influence of Music :
Today I wrote under the influence of Fallen by Presuntos Implicados & Randy Crawford:

Gothic times

Manipulative sadness  
      vivacious master of the grievance we wont damage
fake
      casual echo
of a sassy duple in a resonant fugue

A night-spread lavishly disturbing us

Short  sparks  of vibrant violet light
single vision fighting a vacuous exchange
of psychedelic music

A sky slathered with sumptuous darkness

 Oscillatory feelings
  jazzy  beats
stark dialogue

Gothic times approaching

nonstop

No!
