Relaxed and poised,

I'm ready like there is no tomorrow.

Entering this anti-peace,

yet, peace it is supposed to be,

peace I wish it were for me.

Quietly she sits,

and I am waiting,

as the clock slowly ticks.

Why, I wondered,

why should this be difficult?

To simply hand a note of invitation.

Oh, it's done...

what gratification!

Now, all I can imagine is a negative,

but in my heart,

it's nothing but positive.

And now time has expired,

to the moment when I see her again.

She delivered her response,

and in subtle jubilation I had arrived!

An episode has ended,

and now I look towards the future,

of disappointment? of embarrassment? of disaster?

No, no, no...

Times have changed,

and tomorrow,

I look to happiness.
This is my first poem in almost a year.
This is based solely off of a recent experience where I asked this one very special girl to go to Prom with me. We're not in a relationship; she deserves better, really. Anyway, it's just a poem about how I was feeling at the time and I thought I'd share it with everyone, here. Enjoy.
AND please, feedback and criticism is very much welcomed. Thank you.
