She loved how He lifted her up
like colored lights shining
glowing at midnight
she felt when they swayed
alone together she could taste
the bittersweet edge of goodbye in
each hello an old song
every yes a no every no a yes
the exquisite pain of hoping guessing
meeting parting always one step away
from one another from a love
that felt like dancing
like heartache fragile
sweet and sad as a poem
