Chatters under shimmering chandeliers
The females all made up beautifully
The males dressed to a tee
Wine glasses clinking gently
Her wavy hair flowed
Framing her face nicely
Her lips with a gentle tint of pink
Her hazel eyes scanning the scene nervously
Everyone complimented her rare femininity
Often not seen on usual days
People said
Behind those casual boyish clothes
Hid such a tender beauty
She smiled thankfully
However, unable to focus
For she was waiting to see
The one she dressed up for so zealously
There he was...
Decked in a handsome suit
His tie so neat
His hair styled the way she loved it
The smile he wore on his face
Ever more charming
Her heels clicked carefully
As she walked closer to him
Her heart raced
As the music played a slow melody...
*She saw his hand, reaching out
But it wasn't for her...
It was for another...
The girl he dances with, every day
No matter what
As the dance started
The chandelier lights dimmed
Like her heart
And she left the ballroom
Never turning back*
