I am dancing alone

Around silence

The rushing beats of my heart

The only noise matching the steps of my feet along

My feet are cold

It must be the marble floor, 

numb cold

Despite the hours, my feet have clung on

Oh! It must be my soul,

dead long ago 

I am still dancing alone, 

continuous

The cruel mirror in front of me 

Standing and showing me the tears 

I no longer know why I pour

So much, no control

In the reflection,

I see the faint shadows of people I know

Looking at me with eyes of trust

That I don't see myself with anymore 

In the midst of bodies, 

I see a pair of eyes, red with love

Piercing his gaze on me

Immobile and persistent

Undeserving of his time

Further, I see

eyes of faith,

eyes of belief,

eyes of admiration,

eyes of support,

eyes of selfless love,

staring at me 

Even though, I am dancing in silence

Along with no music, with no rhythm

Shedding tears of hope
