Moondance

On the night of the dead
Dressed to disguise
My lover, I think
Looked me in the eyes

Spellbound I gazed
into the center of his mask
Is this really him
I stopped myself to ask

He took my hand
and we wandered for a while
Weaving through the labyrinth
reaching the center aisle

We stopped and he whispered
Gently in my ear
Evocative words
that I wanted to hear

His voice was different
But I didn’t have a care
I shivered when we touched
I knew I shouldn’t dare

We walked on to a rivulet
Where he kissed me long
Wrapping his arms around me
So tightly and strong

We stood there together
Until I began to swoon
This was not my lover
I had just danced on the moon

    1. I’m so glad you liked it Gina. I actually categorized it as humor! Maybe I should change it 🙂

      1. maybe i like a man who mixes passion with laughter, wait i do! no it is perfect, I read the feelings more than the tags and this one was just so passionate to me. I am rather naughty in public and it unsettles him…sometimes!
