Dance With Death

Quietly sit in this corner alone
Sitting here crying alone

I scream your name in the midst of silence

Yet how do you not here my pleas
My calls

The silence grows to a thunder of noise drowning out my screams again

You walk by me and offer a hand

Are you okay, you say and pull me to my feet

My mask hides my emotions like a masquerade ball hides faces as I smile and nod my head

You pull me to the floor and wrap your arms around me
We twist and turn
Dancing to a haunting song in the silence

You bow your head and ask
One more please

But I shake my head no and bow once more as I twist into another mans arms

We twirl and spin to the beats of the music

Spinning and spinning I bow and leave,
Before I leave though i stand at the door I cry out once more
Still you do not hear my plea
So I shake it off and turn into my second dancers arms

Ok I say shaky
Death you take the lead
