A Dance in the Night


She dances alone in the moonlight,

As the song bird catches her hair,

The stars shine so bright,

But her heart beats with despair.

A mind of logic disappears,

For pain she can not bare,

She is left with tragic fear,

Her midnight eyes a blank stare.

Once these wrinkled hands held love,

And touched a many souls,

These eyes saw beauty as she looked above,

Now they are empty and old.

But dance she may as the wind whispers,

A name which one night will be lost,

The wind so cold it makes her shiver,

The leaves a gentle frost.

"Goodnight my love" the wind sings,

As she dances into the trees,

Upon her back grows wings,

And forever she will be free.
