the dance

by kelli bircket (Aries) - Not entered

i held you in my arms for but a brief moment.
we danced to the same song, but we heard different words.
and i put my head on your shoulder and you kissed my neck 
and said you loved me.
i love you, too.
and the music stopped suddenly, without a fade-out.
and i realized that everyone was still dancing but us.
and i ran out of the dance floor.
and my glass slipper fell off.
who were we fooling?
when the clock struck midnight,
we knew it would be over.
