Mascarade Poem by Sheri B PoeticMadhatter

The dance starts
and I wonder to the floor
I see him there standing
somthing draws me, I want more
He pulls me to him, I feel his heartbeat with mine
althought I cannot see his face
there is no space or time..
I feel he is no stranger
for his touch feels genuine and true
I feel him all around me
and he whispers I'm here just for you..
the music plays and we spin around and round
But all I see is his eyes'
I cannot hear a sound
Who is this man that wears this mask
That fasinates me so
That moves me
and lures me
Before this night ends I have to know..
The dance is nearly over and I feel him pull me near
his lips brush my cheek
and he talks sweetly in my ear..
His embrace makes me feel chills up and down my spine
And I vision he and I in loves sweet confines..
But before I can speak the words..he say's ' I cannot stay'
The mascarade is over
And the man behind the mask took my heart..away.
