58 of 366: Slow dance

asked the dance, reached out my hand
you took it quickly as you stand
gazing upon your eyes tonight
I am in awe of your beauty in this light

 then our hand clasp gently 
as the my other one is on your hips
you other hand on my shoulder
then be begin to sway carefully

the dance was slow, but my heart is fast
beating through my heavy tux
and then it calmed and I can't believe
our feet moved in perfect sync

the music changes and the light goes dimmer
the night grew colder, but my feelings warmer
I wanted to feel it all and close my eyes
but I could not look away at yours, then you smile

then in a flash the music stopped
the light grew brighter, and you loose your hand
you said thank you, then you go
as I said the same, sad and awe

I guess that moment could not be eternity
just the time given freely
and as the tux felt so warm
I could only think of how I held your hand
