Affair

dont know where this came from...

As your dancing has just begun,

Close your eyes and let it run:

This feeling you have held inside,

This feeling that you tried to hide—

The love that keeps you up at night,

Close your eyes and hold on tight.

 

No more waking up in his bed,

Tonight you’ll hold my hand instead.

Let the ring fall off your finger—

I promise you won’t regret

This dance into the sunset.

This brought a smile to my face. Thanks.

I know this painful feeling, "This feeling you have held inside ... This feeling that you tried to hide." Wishing, hoping, praying for that moment when you can, "Close your eyes and hold on tight ... Tonight you'll hold my hand instead." This is a beautiful remembrance of "The love that keeps you up at night."

"Let the ring fall off your finger-
I promise you won't regret
This dance into the sunset."

i really love these lines,
not to say the rest of the poem wasn't good.
you did a fantastic job describing this, infidelity? fresh from divorce?
i can't place my finger on it..well whatever it is,
i think dance is the best verb you could have used.
good job.
