by Pamela Griffiths
As I walked into the club I saw the woman of my dreams
She was dancing on the stage around the spotlight beams
Her long blond hair swayed with rhythmic harmony
She awakened such desire and warmth inside of me
So gracefully she danced with her body gyrating
She was looking straight at me which was so elating
As I stared with longing at my lovely dream girl
She removed her garments and set my heart in a whirl
Tanned flesh was revealed it was a sight to behold
She wasn’t embarrassed she seemed to be so bold
Long and lanky legs wrapped around the pole
As she thrust her body upwards, my heart she stole
Longing and yearning, I was putty in her hand
If only she would come to me she would understand
I can look but cannot touch, she is just a fantasy
This woman so exotic will never be with me
