sparks

the tinder was set
the wind was just right
i peered around the corner
amid the stage fright
and then it just happened
*snap*
a spark
our eyes met just once amid the shadows of the dark
we took a step inside
and left the world behind
the night ahead was bound to us
snug tight as a skull to the mind
*snap*
another
and then three and four
is my mind deceiving me?
am i floating above the floor?
her lips moved in harmony
with her grin and gleaming eyes
no chance i can front on this vibe
the cool act had now lost it’s guise
as the orchestra played on
i smiled and swayed in step
but the only music i heard that night
was from the lady that sat on my left
a skull cap was knit
a concussion of the highest degree
a mindmeld of emotion
a hand slid down her knee
*snap*
