    Dancing with an Angel

    A dancer’s love

    From the moment I first saw her

    I knew

    I had to have her

    For at least one dance

    Then I got to know her

    She wasn’t just smart and beautiful

    She was something I wasn’t expecting

    She was connected to me

    Not just in the way we touched

    It was in the way we looked into each other

    I know she can feel it to

    But how does she feel

    We both know the elephant in the room

    Is she wondering the same things I am

    Arguing with myself

    We share a passion in common

    On the floor

    We share ambitions of success

    We both have a dream

    Both are driven

    The elephant says to us both

    Look at you two

    Separated by time

    Its impossible

    Secretly I fight to hold my Heart in place

    Not for me

    But for her

    She deserves the very best

    A happy future

    Its hard not to fall for such an incredible woman

    I don’t know her past

    I really don’t know anything about her

    Off the floor

    I only know

    Her heart and her hand

    From the way they touch me when we dance

    She’s touched my Heart in a manner I can’t say out loud

    All we have of each other is the floor

    A dance the length of a song

    Its too short for my Heart’s desire

    I wish I was 15 years younger or she was 15 years older

    If only we were closer in age

    I’d steel her Heart away and never look back

    Swipe her Heart right off its feet

    I can’t have her

    And unknown to her

    She means more to me than anyone else

    Out of Love I’ll teach her everything I know

    Give her everything she needs

    To find a man worthy of her Heart

    And I’ll fade out of the picture

    Out of her futures way

    Soon to be a memory

    I’ll pray for her

    Wish her the very best

    Its all I can do

    To refrain from being selfish

    To steel her Heart away would be selfish

    I can’t do that to her

    How I wish

    Whoever my future wife is

    That she’s like this woman

    Only one other time in my life

    Have I felt this way or met a Heart so pure

    That past angel found her prince charming

    This angel will find hers

    When will I find mine

    I feel like I could dance with this angel

    Till the end of time

    I’m smarter than this

    But in all honesty

    A dancer’s Love

    In my Dreams we Love each other

    When we dance,

    Is the only way I can show it

    She’s my wish upon a star

    My desire

    My dance partner

    -Fin-

    Only one other time in my life have I met a Heart like the one I get to dance with right now. She is perfect in so many ways. We all have flaws, even she does. Even so I am so completely taken by her. I find myself wishing that "our" story could be like the movie "Somewhere in Time" or "The Time Travelers Wife". I want this woman's Heart so bad but we barely know each other. This is that infatuation phase that everyone goes through when you first meet somebody that completely sweeps your heart off the floor. I'm trying to mask, trying to hide how I feel. The last thing I want to be is a creep or scar her away. Why? May you ask, can't her and I be together? Its because I'm 17 years older than her. She's a freshman in college. It would be completely selfish of me to steel her Heart. Out of hidden Love and respect for her beautiful Heart I will pour all my dancing experience into her so that she can fly free on the dance floor-as a Queen, as Royalty. I want to give this woman the world, protect her from all the losers that would dare use her or abuse her Heart. But that's not my place, she must chose who she wants to Love, who she wants protecting her. In my wildest Dreams its me, in my Dreams I'm the one she picks. Trying to hide from her the value she has in my eyes, it will only push her away if she knew. I know she can feel my Heart but I'm hoping she doesn't realize the depth of how much she's touched me. For feeling so connected to her I wonder how much connection she feels in her Heart?

    Its confusing the way life is sometimes. Maybe age is just age and nothing else. Some are maturer then their age and others are behind in age.... why is it that like this situation where we meet another person who just magically lights our world with just a simple look or smile upon their face and when it comes time to speak you are already melted with no explanation to how you feel to a stranger who doesnt feel like one at all cuz you feel like you have known them forever but yet in reality you just met. Maybe their is another existance like an after life and thats why the conmection is so strong like the way magnets connect or two peas in a pod stay together??? Only God knows. Should we though fight our feelings because of what others may think or we worry about getting judged?? After all God dont care about age cuz he loves us all both big and small. Short and tall old and young. So if God gives us a love that was sent from above and we are worried more about what the world thinks instead of what we feel and we fight it and then lose it, was it really worth it?? Was it meant to be??? Now i wouldnt go out with someone who is old enuf to be my dad or grandpa and i too am always concerned with age. Cant go out with a guy younger then me but also dont want to much older but is it our pick or Gods??? Dont go out with a minor and ask the Lord above.. ask her?? Communication is the key in any relationship. You have to have God and love as well and as long as ou are commited to those 3 then you shall succeed... great poem....
