In the stillness of the night
Across the river, under the stars
A Silhouette of a dancer
Hunched,
Forsaken,
Alone.
Sits lone dancer
Dreaming of a holding hand.
Whispering in the silence
For no ears to hear.
Once the crowd cheered
Now the light has ebbed
The glory is over
The name long forgot.
The dancer looks up
To the moonlit sky
Counting the stars
To a million and one.
A shadow appears
Embracing dancer warm.
A lover long dead
A lover and friend.
Now A pair of wings each
both dancing in the skies.
Dancer no more lonely
Dancer no more alive.
