Princess Cherise... The Rain.. and the missing Prince...

Well it's been a very busy weekend for me indeed. One of my co-workers had this huge 50th Bday bash that should go down in the records for the Party of all parites. It was a formal Black & White event. Women In black.. Men in white. Now, for those that don't know.. I never got to do the prom thing or homecoming so it's a big deal for me to get all Dolled up.. which is Exactly what I did.. I had my hair pulled up in a simple French Roll with cascading curls to frame my face.. I wore a Satin Black top which tied at the waist and pin striped mid calf length slacks... the shoes, well .. they were off the HOOK!!! I have the pics to prove it! LOL I wore a necklace which dropped down into my bust... IT was VERY sexy.. and I went alone.. :(
The party itself was held in a banquet hall in one the Casino's here in Vegas. It was absolutely breathtaking the way they had it all set up.. Romantic Dance Floor... Low lighting... My kind of music... (lol) I felt like a princess ... except for one thing.. NO PRINCE! Here I was Cinderella without my Prince Charming.. I didn't lose my shoe, but I felt like I'd lost my heart. There I was sitting in a room with about 200 other people.. I smiled.. I laughed.. I mingled, but I'd never felt so in alone in my life. I watched Granny dance to an old Gap Band song... while the other couples embraced one another and danced the night away. My dance partner's consisted of my gay friends and a few girls from work. I swear I felt so sick. I drank away the loneliness and decided to end my nite..ALONE. I went by the strip club because a few friends were there... I never made it inside. It felt like a slap in the face to even be sitting near this place that caused so much of my heartache and HIS. So I went home.. and text Aaron until I fell asleep with my phone in my hand... my only means of comfort.I awoke to the sound of rain.. I immediately opened up my window so that I could take in the smell of the rain. I LOVE the smell of rain!! It makes me feel clean and brand new. Maybe the rain can wash away some of this pain I have in my heart... Just a thought. I'm still waiting on my prince... Wherever HE is.
