In A Crowded Room

By Theodore R. Goyins III

The tone is set, the night has fallen
Suits and dresses draped those that mingled amongst each other
Everyone is enjoying the mood of the evening
Music playing, laughter and chatter fill the atmosphere
People of all walks crowd the room
I enter and walk through looking like a dear in headlights
Looking for someone to latch onto, to look like I belong
Sparking a conversation that wouldn't interest anyone within ten feet
But I go on because I want to seem busy and not look out of place
After minutes and hours of worthless conversation, I feel the heat
You know that warmth you feel when you spot someone or they spot you
I feel someone in my area, it is not a funny feeling
It is actually an amazing feeling
I turn left and nobody was there
The same is true when I turn to the right
But as I about face there she was
