He sat there calmly, Yet perched on the edge of his seat. Her eyes were speaking to him, With magnetic sparkles, drawing him closer. He looked the other way, at the mirror to his side. Watching her secretly, Wanting to inhale her breath, To feel her standing next to him. She left the table and danced with someone else, Her body was swaying to each and every beat, but with every twist of her hips she was stealing a glance. He strolled over, as if he had no cares in the world, and ordered a beer. She laughed at the meaningless joke the one in front of her shared. He hollered for his friend, "do you want a shot?" She whispered in her friends ear, "do you think he's even hot?" Back at his table, he heard his favorite song. He quickly shot a look her way, but decided to hold in all he wanted to say. She waited for him to hold out his hand, maybe to say, "would you like to dance". He thought maybe she wouldn't even give him a second glance. Her laughter traveled, once again to his attentive ear. Then from somewhere across the room, her smile reached his. He found the "rose lady" and counted the money in his wallet. She wondered his name. Then, as if he could read her every thought, there he appeared. One beautiful rose placed in his hand, "For you", He reached out gently and said, "whatever you want, whoever you are looking for...that's me". Her face couldn't hide all the joy she felt at hearing his voice. No more words needed to be spoken, Together, as two souls melted into one, they drifted away... Forever molded, Forever young.
