when old music
hurts too much
and new one
still hasn't taken hold
when my house
becomes too small
to dance in
when I have
so much to wish for
and too little awake-time
to breathe
then
I would like
nothing better
than to feel
your smile
and the steel of your gaze
on my downcast eyes
and then
and then
you would take me
for a twirl
around the park gazebo
in broad daylight
and we would make
the pigeons fly
