you danced like ember
taking it's time to fall.


i was the ground, not moving,
ever so still...
holding my breath, finding a
new way to breathe again
because you pulled me into
this trance...

you ignited a flame without
ever touching me, you were
my yellow sun, and i was
.....earthbound..
too scared, too shy..

you cascaded to me..
while i traced your dance
with my eyes, so beautiful,
teasing..

but you just faded.
faster than you caught flame.
and i was just the ground,
never moving,
forever so still.

i just wanted to catch you.
