Big Brave Steps
The sounds of the orchestra filled the room
Ballgowns and tuxedos graced the dance floor, and in one corner, an elite group of gentlemen mingled over scotch
In the early days, he treated her like royalty
Posh dinner parties and fancy galas
Always the steady beauty on his arm
He had no intention of loving her
She was just for show
But soon, all of the pieces began to fit
Late nights at the office
Endless executive meetings
His 'misplaced' his phone
He had been playing her all along
Yes. It was time
Time for big brave steps and a big-girl move
It was now or never
With one final glance at the men in the corner of the ballroom, silently, she slipped out
