Inspired by the Nick and Lena Showdance from the Third Season, Week Six Results Show, where Nick showed us The Manly Chest as a tiny Tribute!
From the memories that we share,
Completely overwhelms me
As I lie alone, thinking, there.
You come for me,
Pulling me up by the heartstring,
Forcing me to my feet
As my soul begins to sing.
"The Show Must Go On"-
You've left and now, I'm alone.
But still, I dance with you,
In the privacy of my room.
I start to leave your warm embrace
As I remember that you're not here,
But your memory pulls me back,
Your shadow wipes away my tear.
You weave the spell around me
Like you always did before.
My soul's engulfed with anguish,
This sweet and poignant torture.
The morning's rays pull you away
And I claim your body once again.
I'm not finished dancing with you,
I'm not ready for this to be the end.
Your searching gaze is still upon me,
I still feel your breath on my ear,
I can still taste you, feel you with me,
Your silent phantom still lingers here.
We move as one as we dance across time,
The pain's still raw; you're in my arms again,
Alive and free, we're still together here,
The way we should have been.
Please, my darling,
Take me to this place you call your own-
I can't bear to wake up from this dream-
Take me to the place, I have been forsaken from...
For a moment, you refuse-
But I will not let you leave me again-
So, you take me there, a sad smile in place,
As we finish a dance that will never end.

A modern ballroom king.
Rise and fall, proper hold
A waltz is in the works.
Close embrace, heated glance
A rumba has begun.
Swaying hips, rhythmic moves
In time to Latin syncopation.
Feather light steps, lightening on legs
His height is diminished in this.
Effortless glide, beaming smile
As he Quicksteps across the floor.
Tight control, panic never seen
In anything he does.
A foxtrot done, he takes his bow,
Nick Kosovich, the ballroom king.

Whose Smooth was graceful and slick.
He had the best chest
Out of all the rest,
And him for a partner, we'd pick.

Glorious Manly Chest,
All belong to Nick.
