A drunken tête-à-tête



Between a man and his drunken lover (italics)

Two more shots of tequila please,
And a bottle of wine quick, we have to leave,
Isn’t the bartender sexy and sweet,
Look! A ring! He’s married, it seems.

You look for love everywhere you see,
And its’ been too long since we played hide and seek,
Dance with me, and then we’ll leave,
Kiss me quick, before we’re seen,
Let’s get out, don’t create a scene,
To touch your face, you know what I mean
I’m happier than I’ve lately been,
Hurry up, I’ve got the keys,
Listen to me, don’t you love me.
I love you my doll, now lets get out, shall we?

Let me dance, I’ve not done it since
I locked my heart, entrapped and fenced,
Who needs music, did I say I do.
And if I dance forever, I shall dance with you.
Don’t dance all this excitement away,
It’s too early to say goodbye,
Look at me, I know you can feel it

[   The night is still young, and we’re luckily alive,
     Watch the winking stars connive,
     Let’s get away from all these funny people,
     And find a whole new world tonight.      ]    both of them fade out into oblivion...

Two Against the World

For Dodo and someone....

It's a sad new story,
about how the kids fell,
all the way to the bottom,
of a sugar-coated well.

The water starts seeping in,
someone has opened the gates,
they are cornered it seems,
awaiting a drowning fate.

They clung onto each other,
the shiny rope was a trap,
one pull was all it took,
for this lovely rope to snap.

Now we have the strands in our hands,
we know you are looking from above,
we just need some understanding
it cannot be two against the world.
