If you are the shores, I am the waves begging for big moons

Poker tonight: I did pretty well, won a little bit of money. Just the hanging out was fun. Got my car fixed finally, hopefully for the last time now.

I was feeling more poetic tonight, enjoy.

Blinding lights flash.
You can't escape the bass.
The music takes control of your body.
But you never lose control.

Staring between each strobe to catch a glimpse.
An eye pointed in my direction.
Smile. Turn. Glance back.

Music becomes visible through you.
Staring up and I can't look away.
Following every curve with my smoke-dried eyes.
Lock me into your stare and no one else can see you.
But only for a moment.

Do I give you goosebumps?
Then I hope your legs are never smooth again.

The beat follows us down the highway.
Each exit sign reminds me of the inevitible end of the night.
Every white line brings us closer to home.
I could drive all night.

Pause.
Take a moment to reflect.
Just one.
Smile.
Play.
Goodnight.
