She Loves

She
loves everything
and anyone
when the breezes
take their toll
out on
the dance floor
smiling
laughing
kissing
making love
with her words
and her eyes
her seduction
is deception
which I
didn't catch
the vodka
blurring the edges
of my perception
and her
inhibitions
so
now here I am
standing
by myself
with two drinks
in my hands
while she dances
and flirts
with someone else
