Prom night

by Krysten   Apr 16, 2007


He said that he cared
as he held me close
but im sitting here all dress up
with no where to go
he said that he'd take me
claimed i was his girl
so why does it feel
as if im alone in the world
my dress is ever so pretty
his tuxs was oh so sharp
but now i sit here alone
crying in the dark
he never came by to get me
just left me waiting here
i suppose i should have listened
to the rumors on the wind
my prom night has been ruined
by the one person i cared for
so now i lie here crying
like an idiot on the floor

    Beautiful sad penned.... though simply but you express them with beautiful emotions.... keep your head up high, there still have tomorrow.... "Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give love. The fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings." take care. Bert.

    This poem was quite sad, Love gone wrong. I think you write better depressing poems honestly. This was good but not upto the standards of your other works. Emotion was good none the less not as powerful as in other pieces I have read from you though and the flow was spot on as always. Well done a good effort. ~mel

    A very sad love poem, really made me feel for the person in it.. I hope it isnt true, or about you, cause that would make me sad. I like the way you write, Some of the lines seemed a bit forced to me, but you do seem to have a tallent for making the reader feel the emotions you'retrying to express. At least from what i've read.
    thanks for sharing =)
