dancing with the devil 2

my heart pounded like
how the walls were pulsing along
to the beat, beat, beat.

remember how you swooned me
into your room and into your bed?
i almost gave in right 
there and then.
then where would that night have gone?

but i wanted to dance, with
the others - who knows who.
i had thoughts of the stars and of a
place that was not present, somewhere,
anywhere but there.

remember when you grabbed
my wrists so we could tango?
but i was clumsy with my two left
feet that left us
falling over
making a mess
banging the walls
hitting our heads.

what have i done?
i did it again.
dancing with the devil
nearly left me dead.
