In the dance of the day, we each play our part,
Betraying trust, it's a beat of the heart.
Ignoring the consequences, caught in the thrill,
No remorse do I feel, and I can't stand still.
In the arms of another, I find my delight,
Seeking happiness in the cover of night.
Call it infidelity, though you do the same,
Yet in your betrayal, we play a shared game.
As dusk turns to shadows, emotions run high,
But regret finds no place, for we're both in the lie.
I stand here your equal, no guilt in my chest,
Poised to do just as you did, at your own behest.
Unspoken thoughts fill the night with their tune,
The silence grows heavy, like a weight on the moon.
Your gaze holds a secret, a trace of remorse,
While I bear my own sins, in the stillness, of course.
With the birth of a new day, I steal a quick glance,
Wondering if your thoughts match mine, in this dance.
My mind's a wild storm, yet I dare not speak,
Fearing the pain that our truths may unleash.
Shall we drown in this dawn, or let hours slip away?
What fate lies ahead, what words will we say?
As we hold one another, our secrets locked tight,
Should we ever unveil what we did in the night?
Perhaps it's wiser to dance in the hush,
Let our thoughts be the rhythm, the rush.
For speaking of deeds that may hurt us more,
Could shatter the silence we've carefully swore.
