Where Earth Ends and Heaven Begins

We met on a Saturday,
A chilled November evening
When the heat inside was
Magnified by bodies jumping,

Dancing to the rhythm from
A jukebox playing in the corner of the hall,
Lively jaunting melodies
Kept filling up the air.

You were sad when first we met,
Looking for a shoulder you could
Lean upon, needing someone
To restore your faith in love.

I was wide-eyed, filled with
Expectation, just a bumpkin
From the country with an
Empty open heart to fill.

We had just one dance that night;
Threw all caution to the winds.
I held you in forever…
Where earth ends and Heaven begins.
