I Never Danced

I never danced not a stride hard as I tried the rhythm and the songs pushed two left feet along ever turning to the right but I watched you in the midnight light. A spin, a twirl along the wood dance floor while others watched I eyed the clock your shoes never touching down and my efforts more like a clown. The music played a quickstep, waltz, and foxtrot but the rhythm escapes me the dancer forever not so I sit, a wallflower, waiting sad face observing the melodic rhythm flow to your taste but when the night is over and done it's me and you alone the lover won.
