This Sad, Sad Tango

Rachel Yapp

A room of unfamiliar faces
A heart of grief and strife
Empty meanings and spaces
This was described as my life

Left alone in my misery
Trying to hide the fear in my eyes
In need of someone to hold me
Someone to put an end to my cries

Then you gave me your hand
And invited me to this dancefloor
I took your hand gratefully
My heart began to soar

I often find myself
Giving more of me to you

I couldn't stop myself
I believed your emotions were true

As this dance progressed forward
You managed to steal my heart
I was in such joy
I prayed the end would never start

My body was commanded by this music
As I continued to dance
Before I could quickly blink
My body was in a trance

My lips, sealed with kisses
My worries, diminished by your touch
You gave me things I never dreamed I'd have
My feelings were such

"These emotions, these feelings
Were these really love?"
"Is this man truly someone
That was sent to me from above?"

I observed my surroundings
And saw many an evil smile
I was in fear, but I knew
That you were with me all the while

Then I looked up at your face
On it was an evil grin
There was chaos and deviousity in your eyes
You seemed full of nothing but sin

My long-awaited fantasy
Was suddenly tragically shattered
My eyes were quickly opened
To what really mattered

This is not a dancefloor
But instead a form of hell
Is this really the place
That I am destined to dwell?

This music that commands my body
Is very deceptive indeed
It is your enticing voice
Demanding that I proceed

The pieces begin to fit together
My fantasy is merely your game
Where only you know the rules
And I am yours to tame

The love that is there for you
Is not there for me
I am utterly devastated knowing
The ways of destiny

My heart, at your will
My body, at your beck and call
I have nothing more to give
You have taken it all

I am nothing more than your fool
Yet you are everything to me
What did I do to deserve
To be treated so violently.

This sad, sad tango
A heart of grief and strife
Pain, agony, a meaningless cause
This is indeed my life...

A SAD, SAD TANGO
