Yes--unfortunately, I'm still alive :P It's been forever since I've been here, so I just thought that I'd update before all of you forget I exist xD I wrote this poem with Robin and Raven in mind...heh. Anyway, I know it's not my best, so feel free to discourage me from writing any more crappy stuff like this. xD
"My First And Last Dance"
As I enter this world, strangers pass me by,
Ignoring the look of emptiness and fear in my eyes.
Wandering aimlessly, standing on my own,
Unfamiliar faces reminding me I'm alone.
Hesitation filled me, and I tried to step away,
Until you approached me and asked if I could stay.
Throughout the night, I was only with you,
And I stood there, not knowing what else I could do.
The music slowed down, the lights went dim,
And it felt as though my whole world revolved around him.
You looked at me with a smile, and asked me to dance,
I wanted to know your name before I lost the chance.
Suddenly, I couldn't hear you, I couldn't understand,
My eyes flooded with tears as you let go of my hand.
I felt deceived by the foolish thoughts in my head,
As I awoke all alone, crying on my bed.
It was all just a dream--just a dream of the past,
A dream that seemed like forever, but ended too fast.
I still remember him--and I recall with a glance,
The only one who gave me my first and last dance…
So...yeah. Please tell me what you think :)
