The Ballroom

The light seizes to illuminate,
but the floor glistens of the untold;
secrets,
lies.
Together they dance.
their worn, tired, feet
seemingly coming alive.
He leads,
his strong muscular arms
wrapped within her tiny frame.
Slow, quick, quick, slow.
He glances over her shoulder,
eyes steady.
As she surrenders her independence,
she follows.
Moving in perfect unison,
Her eyes sparkle.
