I Will Not Dance to Your Song.

Cindy Rossetti

I will not dance to your song.
A decision not mine to make.
Keep me guessing, not for long.
Ready to move, not mine to take.
Choose happiness, come along.
I will not dance to your song.
I know you have many choices to make.
I try to stay impartial, but I know I can't.
Your happiness is mine, make no mistake.
I just can't tell you,that I will not grant.
I will not dance to your song.
Your personality is so strong.
These feelings have lasted so long.
My will is yours all nightlong.
Deep in my heart I know this is wrong.
I will not dance to your song.

Cindy Rossetti

I never intended to write but it was suggested that I put on paper what my thoughts were for the day. This became an outlet for me. Most everything I write about is based on experiences I have had in my life. I do not consider myself a poet, just someone that puts feelings into words. The true masters, well, you know who you are. I am honored to be in your presence. Anyway, I hope you enjoy or at least feel what I have to say. more…
