Roses

“Hey, been a
long time.”
Eyes meet
Surprise and shock
Happiness
He stands six feet tall
In a full blown
Tux.
Grinning eyes,
That familiar
Scraggle.
He bends his knees
For that gentle
Embrace.
Roses.
He smiles
I feel that I will die
Of happiness
“From him,”
he says.
He points out
The door.
He is still
Beaming
Ecstatic.
I think that I loved
Him
Standing there
In his tux,
So oblivious.
It is easy to think
That the roses
Were from him.

Haha, so this was really depressing. This guy that I liked, came to my work dressed in a tux with his hair done, and an armful of roses for me. So he was all adorable about it and I was like, "Oh my gosh!!!" And then he told me that they were from this other guy.... That was a HUGE let down. But the roses were pretty.

Ouch!

That must have hurt a bit! So what did you do? You've left me wanting to know more,
Dave
