Last night was nearly perfect

by just a poet   Feb 5, 2006


I couldn't come to teen culture,
you knew my mom put her foot down,
so we went to a restaurant instead,
without you by my side.

we got there and had fun,
there was live music as well,
we danced the night away,
me and my friends were alright.

then my friend and her boyfriend,
danced to a slow slow song,
and i saw me and you for a Minuit,
standing arm in arm.

but you wasn't with us,
you stayed at the disco,
you didn't know where we were,
you'd forgotten i even existed.

i did try to say goodbye,
but you ignored my little wave,
it was like a stab in my heart,
shattered once again.

i really really care about you,
i thought of you non stop,
but then my friend made a suggestion,
that really tore me apart.

do you think he'll get a girl there,
do you think he'll make out,
do you think he remember us,
do you think he'll go further than that.

i stood up from the table,
feeling quite sick,
i ran to the ladies loo,
trying to keep my tears in.

then i remembered your friend was there,
and he must not realize,
so i ran back laughing,
pretending i was alright.

but every time i thought of you,
i saw you in her arms,
sharing a blissful kiss,
forgetting our good times.

i got back home quite late,
feeling very tired,
the weight of the world surrounding me,
crushing my very being.

my friend phoned me exited,
talking about the day,
thanking me for a great time,
and her first kiss with her mate.

and as she said that i remembered,
all the hugs we shared,
the soft kisses rained on my cheek,
the times you swung me around.

so many good times,
you really didn't care,
i said goodbye to my friend,
once again hiding my pain.
