V-Day Dance

I sit all alone at the annual V-Day

Dance

All dolled up in silk red and raven

black spirals

All of the of couples have someone

but not me

Plenty of men have asked me to dance

with them but I refused

I want him to dance with me

But I know that’s not going to

happen

He’s with her

I hate that little slut

She’s just trashy

But then,

I notice that someone is standing

over me

I slowly look up from

my umesake and see him!

“Will you dance with me?” he asked

I look around to see if this is a joke

I found that she has left him for another man

I smile smartly and say,

“Sure.”

Then, I get up and dance with his as usual

Just as I knew I would win in the end
