Run Until Your Legs Break

My hand clasped tightly in yours
My hand round your shoulder
Yours on my waist
Your hand holding mine.

Spin me around
Our shadows cast upon the floor
Twirling in time with us
A ghost wrought upon the floor.

The light catches your eyes-
You're an open book
I see where your looking
She winks and looks at me

Her face falls but mine falls faster
You run fast
But I ran faster
Getting away from you.

A mystical place
Hidden in the trees
Beneath giant pedals of
Poisonous flowers.

They would have killed me quickly
If you hadn't taken my life first.
