you held me your arms as we danced the waltz br one erry night at that grand masquerade ball br br beneath those grotesque arches and barreled vaults br where those vivid voices filled that lavish hall br br you gazed upon me and took my hand in yours br then began to bow, hearing the overture br br when you guided me through those pink marbled floors br everything around me seemed to have recur br br we started to dance the unfamiliar song br one step to the left, another to the right br br even though every step we took seemed wrong br you held me in your arms and vanished my fright br br you held me closer as I counted to three br and then you swirled me! br br br ~mingbr br Inday Prisingbr br
