Betrayed By Her Heart
The words on her lips dried up
as soon as he entered the room
her facial expression said it all
she never expected to see him again
never expected her heart to still miss a beat
all eyes focused on her as he makes
his way across the room
she takes the glass away from her lips
without taking a sip
time stood still when he smiled at her
all she could do was smile back, nervously
pretend that the music didn’t just stop playing
pretend that her heart was not providing music of its own…
