A look into my past with a villanelle.
Loud music echoes through the halls,
An array of feelings moving through me,
Friends surrounding, as my world falls.

I beg to leave, never to return to this ball.
We turn to go, as my friends agree.
Loud music echoes through the halls.

The last song is annouced before we go, I recall.
I stop, anger, sadness, tears, time to flee.
Friends surrounding, as my world falls.

The attentions of my best friends fall,
On an unknown figure behind me.
Loud music echoes through the halls.

I feel an arm on my waist, it stalls,
Turning me into the arms of the one I prayed to see.
Friends surrounding, as my world falls.

Lifehouse guided us on the floor of the ball,
My dream at last, the final dance with thee.
Loud music fades once and for all,
His arms surrounding, as my world falls.
