Staggered breaths and pounding heartbeats
Their feet moved together in-sync with the tune
The twisting of her skirt
And the flapping of his jacket
As they glide across the floor
They are surrounded by the warm embrace
Of freedom
The smell of bourbon in the air
A night of vibrancy and fun
Only meant for them to enjoy
Drowned out by the music
The chatter of onlookers
And clinking of their glasses
Completely immersed in the moment
Living for the here and now
Their movements slow
Fading as the band plays the last note
He tips his hat and she curtsies
Signifying the end of today's show
Till another time
