That Date
Saturday night
I was counting the hours
My Date was supposed to pick me up at 8p.m
Dressed in a beautiful knee high dress
It had beautiful hues of Purple, Lilac and Black
My fav colours that make me feel dreamy
Promises are to be kept
Time seemed to have stopped for me
For by midnight, not a sign of him
Sitting on the Stairs in the Cold Wintery night
Where the wind seemed to be bellowing out his name
As if whispering', ' He isn't coming...!? 'Sweet child... 'He isn't coming'...!?
Counting the hours...
Time seemed to have elapsed...2.35 a.m...!!!??
Gosh...!!! 'Where could he be'!?...Mama calling out...!!
'Darling'...!!! 'Time for bed'...!!!
Seems he stood you up...
A sad night
Tears running down my cheeks
