THE DANCER IN WHITE Date: Tuesday, 3rd June 2008 @ 10:12:17 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: jsringo She's a dancer dressed in white When I close my eyes she's there She dances for my pure delight I look for her most every night Long white dress and long black hair She said her dance is just for me Eagerly I await her show No one dances quite like she Should I touch or let her be Should I keep silent or let her know She always leaves me right at dawn No dance is like the one before She shows some skin then It's gone A glimpse of flesh then It's withdrawn My poor heart yearns for more and more Will she appear and call my name Can I keep her for my own Will tomorrow be the same Will she flicker like a dying flame Or will her heart just turn to stone This poem is Copyright © jsringo Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
