For the ones who live in another reality,

Dancing their problems away with someone who,

Exists nowhere but in their own mind.

May you one day find that someone in this reality,

Who is able to love you, for you,

And no one else.


She'd been standing to the side, watching the others dance, and dance, and dance. It was almost hypnotizing, the way they all moved in sync with their spins and twirls. Oh how she wished to be able to dance, just once, with someone.

With a sigh, she reluctantly turned away to walk elsewhere. As she started to walk away, she felt a hand lightly graze her arm. She turned back, to see a tall man, with beautiful, piercing blue eyes, looking at her with a smile. He offered her his hand, and said with a deep, husky voice "Would you care to give me this dance, m'lady?"Her breath hitched, and she became speechless, but nodded, putting her hand in his, accepting his offer. His grin grew wider, and he lead her to the dance floor, putting a hand on her waist, and holding her other.She didn't know how to dance, nor did she like the feeling of everyone's eyes on her. But the moment they started dancing, it all disappeared. It was like it was just the two of them, floating across the floor, dancing and dancing.The song ended, and he bowed, and started to leave. "W-wait!" she called to him. He turned back, an eyebrow raised. "U-uh...what's your name?" she asked, "A-and will I ever see you again?"He chuckled, and gave her a knowing smile, as though they were sharing a secret. "We'll see, my songbird." he told her, walking away into the crowd. She tried to follow him, but he was lost in the crowd.She never saw him again. But that dance, was forever on her mind. Each day she thought of him, and if she might see him again.
