Slow dance

Awaken from the reverie of dancing in an empty ballroom,

Low beat music with the lights flickering as I felt the gloom.

The luster looks as close as the twilight from the night,

It makes my heart lose its glimmer from the inevitable fright.

.

Is it death that I sense or just the fear of being a failure?

Obscured by misery and I just can't see the beauty of its nature.

Struck by another tangled arrow as it messes me up once again,

I am in a labyrinth and I just want to get out of this pain.

.

I am bleeding out and I somehow felt the nothingness,

I sometimes wished to be dead but then came the brightness.

You are the bandage from my scars and from the holes of my heart,

I am a messed up canvas but you made me feel like art.

.

Coming back from the daydream comes thee,

The one who picked me up for a slow smooth dance.

The ballroom was empty except for you and me,

You lifted me up from my sorrow and gave life again another chance.
