Musked ball

Masked Ball
-
Was I a long one night stand;
Did he played me for a fool;
My heart, my love, my money, why;
Was I that blind; thought he loved me
-
We on the dance floor
I disrespectfully cuts in
He's dancing with a new girl
A new victim I guess
He knows how to choose them
-
She beautiful, elegant in her mask
Expensive like a price tag of her dress
I won't let her be fooled the way I was
I can see his charms working
I remember exactly her laugh, that was me
-
Cutting to the chase while we dancing:
-
"What is happening?"
"Where? Who are you?"
"I know you can recognize me under this mask, you never called again!"
"I know ve'been busy... sorry away."
"Yes busy making out with others after you were done with me."
"Hey told you I was married."
"You never did. We stayed a full month together, you never even once mentioned her, you've made me believe I was your only girl..."
"No it was less than a month..."
"That's not the point, you played with my heart and my money. You showed me the stars and then you vanished with the sun, was it all a lie, damn what a silly question, of cause it was?"
"Watch your voice, this is a respectable establishment..."
"You mean your wife's house? Was it all a lie? Just indulge me on that first and then tell me why me. Was I a target all along?"
"Hey this is not a place nor the right time, this is an invitation only Ball how did you get the invitation?"
"Maybe you should ask your wife that, I've just joined her law firm we are equal partners now."
"What?! Who, you? You are her... the woman she always talks about?!... look meet me in the Smoking Hall in ten, I'll make an excuse and met you..."
"No need for an excuse she knows, we new best friends now, wow talking about a small world..."
"What?..."
"Yes you've heard me, meet me and your soon to be ex wife now in the Smoking Hall, this ball is for you. It's your farewell Ball. Damn you could have at least kept my name in your head, maybe you could have been alarmed when she mentioned me."
