I expected you to be there but as I looked out onto the stage you were not there.
My nerves started to get the best of me as I continued to look out into the crowd.
But, then you walked in and the lights dimmed and I smiled and found my place.
The show started and we all did well, I stood up straight and said my line with perfection.
The crowd went wild as the show ended, so much applause.
With big smiles on our faces we all took a bow.
And as the curtain went down you ran up to me and placed a single rose in my hand.
The perfect ending to a wonderful night.
