He tips his hat toward her
And she dances around him

Not knowing who will speak first
He doesn't say anything,
Simply follows her around with his eyes

Does she know how he feels?
The raw passion in his eyes is evident
Yet she avoids looking in them.

She notices the tall dark stranger
Not knowing how their lives would be impacted.
If they would be- she knew not.

Then, accidentally she bumps in to him
His hands reach out
And keep her from falling...

She glances up and takes a sharp breath in
His eyes searched her soul.
Looking deep within her.

He felt warmth and electricity shoot up his arms
As he held her closer still
He knew it would all fit together.

He looked toward her lips
And felt her notice that he did
He lowered his mouth down on hers...

*She woke up with a start
   Who was that stranger?
   Was it fictional or real?
   She might never know
