As I watched her dance in the firelight,
hypnotised by her every move that night.
The intensity of the flames seemed to
illuminate her expressions from her lips
to her hips.
Filled with consternation as she approached
and acknowledged my gaze,
but fixed was my eyes on her beauty.
Something about the night's background
infused with flames in my peripheral vision
that she seemed to float on air.
Either way, I was no longer in the
physical realm.
Now, my anxiety had turned to utter calmness,
it was as though our spirits had met before!
Frozen in the moment, I watched,
I saw before me a kindred soul.
All that existed was this new-founded
connection.
