pen, paper, and coffee

p r o m n i g h t

prom night,
my eyes are all fixed on you
examining how classy you are in that navy blue suit,
i hope you know it is my favorite color,
you stand out of the crowd
because you are the apple of my eye
there are so many fine men,
but they are not as fine as you
they can never be better than you
slow song,
and we're dancing
i'm so into the motion with you
i forgot we're not alone in the room
i am flowing with the sweet melody,
step-close, step-step-close
my hands are tangled with your hand,
this is all i ever dreamed of
i see you glancing for a millisecond,
and i couldn't get the smile off of my face
you don't know how happy i am,
you don't know how this moment matters to me
you don't realize how important you are to me,
so you are off liking another girl
i am drowning in pain,
but you're not here to save me
you don't know,
so you don't care
snowball
you turn me around,
along with the turn, happiness followed
sudden turn of events
our dance is done,
and now you're dancing with another girl.
