La Danse

by ilva

You said that I could find you In the space that lies between The reality that binds you And the traces of your dream. You asked me, "Can you dance To a poem by Baudelaire?" "La danse," said I. "C'est la poésie Avec des bras et des jambes." Your hands made a ballroom of my body Your fingers tap-danced on my skin Oh, and how I moved under your melody Like a waltzing gypsy violin.
