"LADY IN RED"
'Who is she?'
go the whispers in the night
Floats into the room
like a gentle breeze
Her gracious style
emits illuminating light
Capturing hearts with ease

Gown of crimson red,
reflects a blush on her face
Eyes that shine
like the stars in the sky
Words she speaks
with charm and grace
But even still, seems a bit shy

A mystery she is,
this Lady in red
What secret does she keep?
What do you see in her eyes,
that's not being said?
What is the pain
inside her heart so deep?

She will never tell
you though
This pain she wants to hide
Cut to the heart
so long ago
Thousands of tears
she has cried

She guards her broken soul
The front she displays
is not real
Her spirit within,
she tries to keep whole
Will not allow
her heart to feel
Glancing across the room,
a stare
He is taken
by her every move
She sees him
just standing there
His love for her
he must prove

Lady in red,
he reaches for her hand
The look in his eyes,
cannot be ignored
So helpless she is,
to his command
Never had a feeling
like this before

The rest of the world
drifts away
Pulls her close in his arms
Music wraps around them
as it plays
Taken he is,
with her charm

At last a peacefulness
surrounds her soul
No more pain,
but comfort instead
He is the One,
now she knows
True love has found,
The Lady In Red
