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
