Description
A touch, a taste.
A love, a hate.
A dance, a mask.
But no music can last.

A girl. A boy.
An overwhelming sense of joy.
A woman. A man.
Neither holding the others hand.

He came out for the night.
To see his love affair die.
Bated breath, no kiss goodbye.
She was betrayed by his eyes.

She wished, hoped, prayed.
Simply for him to stay.
Another dance. Another song.
He couldn't wait that long.

She wished he'd stayed.
He wishes he'd been delayed.
No one stopping him, he had to leave.
To his wife, he must cleave.

She didn't know of another.
Another he had made a mother.
Not unlike herself, only one simple change.
With her, there was a money exchange.

He had a wife. He did not tell her.
He was a taken feller.
