Her bare feet move along the burning coals,
Her smile boldly painted in place,
No trace of pain upon her face,
She twists and she sways to the music she hears,
The rhythm can cleanse her of all of her fears,
Her timing is perfect, as she hums along,
Though no one else, can hear the song,
Enchanted, transfixed, you follow her lead,
The music, for you, is becoming a need,
As you sway, you begin to hear the tune,
Playing under the light of the moon,
Mystery girl, wild at soul,
A heart that no other man could console,
Look deep within those twinkling eyes,
And see the tears that only she cries,
She comes to this spot to bring a memory to life,
She remembers a time when she was somebody’s wife,
The love shared that only you two could know,
As she dances she asks, “Oh, why did you go?”
The drums pound out the beat of your heart,
Then the music stops, and again you must part,
For only when she dances, can she feel you hold her tight,
Long ago you passed, into the never ending night. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 22 [informant] => Ruby2sdy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

Dancing In The Sand

She dances in moonlit shoals,
Her bare feet move along the burning coals,
Her smile boldly painted in place,
No trace of pain upon her face,
She twists and she sways to the music she hears,
The rhythm can cleanse her of all of her fears,
Her timing is perfect, as she hums along,
Though no one else, can hear the song,
Enchanted, transfixed, you follow her lead,
The music, for you, is becoming a need,
As you sway, you begin to hear the tune,
Playing under the light of the moon,
Mystery girl, wild at soul,
A heart that no other man could console,
Look deep within those twinkling eyes,
And see the tears that only she cries,
She comes to this spot to bring a memory to life,
She remembers a time when she was somebody’s wife,
The love shared that only you two could know,
As she dances she asks, “Oh, why did you go?”
The drums pound out the beat of your heart,
Then the music stops, and again you must part,
For only when she dances, can she feel you hold her tight,
Long ago you passed, into the never ending night.

I like this a lot..it's magical. I have one suggestion to make it flow a bit better..
Look deep within those twinkling eyes,
And see the tears that only she cries,

Look deep into each twinkling eye
and see tears that only she can cry.

just a suggestion:-)
