Into the Blue (Part V) - The Ball

Hello my Angel, I see you found the note

Well, here's another, an invitation if you will

Yes, to Mount Olympus, you are honoured guest

The Wolf has chosen attire for you so you will look your best

The white and gold it suits you

So does tiara in your hair

And yes, of course

The Wolf will happily take us there

Hera and Zeus, bow before you now

For such inner beauty seldom visits here

They offer music from harps of Angels

To the floor with me my dear

No, I don't know the steps either

But that is of no matter

Just hold me in your arms

And no mountains tonight will shatter

To feel again your cheek on mine

And to feel your breath upon my ear

I know we are surrounded by the Gods

But it's like we are the only people here

Surrounded by food of plenty

And though wine does overflow

Ignore them for a moment while I whisper I Love You

And this time I beg you please don't go

Thank you for staying and dancing

You begin to understand the Blue

And that this is what Fate denied

And before you stands a man who only wanted you

I cannot speak the words out loud

That is why I write these in your mind

To try and convey the message

Of what you left behind

Sorry I am rambling

Let your thoughts return to the Ball

Sip upon the wine and lick nectar from your fingers

And smile at the Gods who desire the next dance

Who in desperation for your nod, stumble, slip and fall.

No, he's not here, this is not the home of Hades

He prefers to stay below

But I fear to make you understand me

It is the next place we must go

Do not be disappointed, love has many sides

Not all in the Blue is joyous

As like love not all is true

But for me not to be it's slave

This is something we have to do...
