When I first saw her across a room The light seemed to attach to her Glowing like a personal halo illuminating Her as she danced alone in the crowd Seemingly unapproachable in beauty And with unworthy intent I approached My shadow mingling with her halo Together we danced a completion Of light and dark cumulating on our lips Where our tongues danced in darkness In night the shadow of victory complete A temporary triumph because the sun Always rises in the morning to chase Away longer shadows bathing in light Those things hidden and destroying The aspects that cannot stand up To the scrutiny of the morning Here I lie exposed waiting on her For judgement of deeds illuminated Wondering if my light can shine bright Enough to make her notice me
