Party

Party

A Poem by Johanna
"

"It was a late late night..looking like a ghost in the light.."

"


It was a late late night

I saw people dance in the light

Beer glasses topped with foam

Couldn´t hear myself in the music drone


It was an early sunday

On the sidewalk people would sway

On their way back home

But I walked there alone


It was late afternoon

The relief was coming soon

Dress up like a pretty party doll

Wait for darkness to fall


It was a late late night

Looking like a ghost in the light

Danced on the floor with pride

But felt so empty inside

A gathering of people without having a true connection can make you feel really lonely. I have experienced it so many times and try to avoid such events.

Nice work Johanna... I know that even though at a party having fun it totally sucks if your lonely and empty inside. Nice write.

I can sympathize with the girl. I know how it feels to be empty inside.

Thankyou for reading this
Thank you for sharing this.
I can totally relate with doing things that should make you feel alive, but inside it's not the same story.
