Angelica Grier Poet Free verse

Stood Up

It's 7:30 and I'm excited
We made plans earlier this week
I've been looking forward to seeing you
It's 7:45 I'm in the shower
8:00 I'm picking out the perfect outfit
My hair is done just the way you like it
8:15 I'm misting myself in my favorite fragrance
8:30 I'm waiting
8:45 I'm checking my phone
No missed calls no texts
8:50 I call you twice 
Text you once no response
8:55 I'm still at home
The movie starts at 9
I guess we're not going

I will plan to do something with someone at a certain time, get ready, and then when that time rolls around they are nowhere to be found.
