Perfect, Sweet, Him

The flame flares,

I see it reflected in your eyes 

Or is it mischief?

You take my hand and pull me

Onto the dance floor as we

Shift and sway to the beat,

My hand in yours, trembling.

You laugh and whirl me around

One thought whizzing through 

On my train of thought:

Kiss me, kiss me, kiss HIM!

Reading my mind, or possibly my face

Open like a book 

He leans in...

Closer, closer,closer...

Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! 

I bolt up out of bed,

Slip on my glasses,

And give a braces-filled smile 

As I hug my pillow and sigh. 

"Perfect, sweet, him"

Just a perfect dream
