The Beginning of an End

by S.M. Scott - Capricorn

I sit in the corner
Unseen by other eyes
Knowing that this world
Holds no prize
But I wait
'Til she walks by
She is the reason
That I still try
And then I see her
With a quick glance
Walking over to her
Leading her to dance
And she smiles
As I do
I know it's sadness
That those tears cry
And I hold her
Her body close to mine
Telling her that
Her heart will be fine
And she smiles
Looking upon my face
Pulling her closer
Moving in place
the sweet beauty
I see in her heart
Is the one thing
I cannot part
And so we dance
And I hold her tight
Knowing that this
Is what is right

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this for a friend who had just ended a rough relationship and didn't want to jump into another one right away.  I just wanted her to know that everything was going to be ok and that I still love her, even though I've never told her.
