Dancing with Eternity
This nature-inspired free verse poem explores the love between two partners who meet outside to dance under the stars. There, the snow has fallen, and all feels right in the world for a moment, if nothing more. Imported from dA via Vocal.
Wanderers unite under the starlit sky
Waltzing in the softest snow
Tonight, my love, we’re here together
At long last
No one here to stop our dreaming
No cruel words to slow our pace
Our hearts beating
Racing together
Out of rhythm with the world
And in our own
Though eventually I know
That we will say goodbye again
It won’t be permanent
It never has been
Is
Will be
You will never leave my side
Nor I yours
Always in my mind and heart
I try to cry
I can’t
I’m smiling too wide
My eyes no longer overflow with tears
But shine in love and joy
I have found you
And will never let you go
Spend my eternity with me
Two wanderers dancing in starlit snow.
