~One "Special" Evening~
I was so eager
To pick the right clothes
To look “special”
Perhaps because it mattered so much to me
To feel “special”
I was so excited to see you…
Until we arrived
And you found friends
And as I sat to the side
And you laughed, and shared,
Enjoying each others’ company
Every moment that passed
The “special” feeling passed with it
And by the end of the evening
I felt sad
And worthless
And unsure why you were with me…
When you came back to me
I felt
Like you would rather be with them
And from special
To nothing
From excited
To sad
To disappointed
My emotions ran
Like a waterfall
The evening passed
As I slowly,
Painfully,
Poured over the edge…
