Formal Attire
She felt beautiful.
 The soft as silk purple fabric covering her curves down to her knees
 The dark room filled with colored lights
 and the music traveling through her
 
 Then there he was.
 
 He walked right over, 
 wrapped his arms around her. 
 the slow music making their bodies move to a beat
 that is indescribable
 
 His touch was electrifying. 
 Sent her heart on a tailspin, making every nerve 
 Fully awake.
 
 This was the moment she'd been waiting for
 He loved her.
 She could feel it, she knew it.
 Or so she thought.
 
 The days went on without a word
 Then she saw them together.
 Laughing, hugging, 
 Looking into each others eyes.
 Just like he'd done with her.
 
 Rage and overwhelming grief filled her senses
 And she ran.
 Memories of that night wandered through her mind
 Like a horrible nightmare.
 
 She fell to her knees and sank at the sudden realization 
 That night was nothing.
 "Your dress looks so pretty."
 Now she knows
 He only ever cared about what was underneath.
 
 She cried, she sobbed
 She broke.
 And it all started with that
 Purple silk dress.
