Strangers in the night

Loud music,
Stepping in Tune,
The Club was full.

Strangers that night,
Our eyes met,
In the darkness.

Ordering drinks,
Shouting our names,
At the Bar we stood.

Strangers that night
We spoke,
Oblivious to the noise.

Only one night,
We remained strangers.
Then sealed forever,
We remain.

  3. Cool. Reminds me of Frank Sinatra song “Strangers in The Night”. Here are the first few lines. I am sure you will love them:

    “Strangers in the night exchanging glances
    Wond'ring in the night what were the chances
    We'd be sharing love before the night was through”

    ”Something in your eyes was so inviting
    Something in you smile was so exciting
    Something in my heart told me I must have you “

    Just heard that song. Still relishing.
