Alone Once Again (story poem)

Alone once again, on a Friday night,
I drove toward the neon light.
Shut off the radio, and parked the car;
Thoughts of you, as I entered the bar.

I pulled up a stool, and ordered a drink;
Tried more than ever not to think.
Looked to my left, what did I see?
A green-eyed angel gazing at me.

With a wicked sneer, I cast a line;
She took the bait, I knew she was mine.
Without a fight, I reeled her in;
Bought her a drink, with a wrinkled ten.

We laughed together, till it split my side;
She asked me to dance, and I obliged.
She said, "She liked me," I lied, "Me too."
'Cause as she held me, I was holding you.

Music ended, we strolled to our seats;
Asked her if she wanted something to eat.
Her coat was on, before she said yes,
She offered to drive, I mumbled, "I guess"

We approached the car, I stepped in,
She looked at me, with a seductive grin.
Pulled me closer, gave me a kiss,
When our lips touched, you I missed.

Tasting of smoke, and cheap draft beer;
I almost started to shed a tear.
I felt ensnared, knew not what to do,
As she kissed me, I was kissing you.

She withdrew, so she could start the car;
Announced to me, "We're not going far."
Few minutes later, and two blocks away,
We were at her home, and ready to play.

She grabbed my hand, unlocked the door,
Escorted me swiftly, across the floor.
Like a sheep to slaughter, I was led,
We entered the bedroom, dove on the bed.

Clothes erupted; we were skin to skin.
Like a bee to a hive, I was in.
As the time passed by, only I knew,
As she loved me, I loved you.

She said I was good, and very hot
I humbly replied, "I get that a lot"
We vowed to never, let our friendship end,
So I rolled her over, and hit it again.

Last I remembered, the clock chimed four,
When I looked over, and heard her snore.
Wanted to wake her, but forgot her name,
Embraced her closer, overwhelmed with shame.

Through the window, the morning sun peaked,
Beaming off my ass, when off I streaked;
To the bathroom, as quiet as a mouse,
I got dressed, and snaked out the house.

Toward a store, I marched up the street,
Stomach still aching, needed to eat;
Bought a donut, and an ice cold Dew,
I exited the store, still missing you.

Thankful the journey, was not that far,
I found my way, back to the bar.
Forgot exactly, where I had parked at,
Did not matter, all alone it sat.

I jumped in the car eager to go.
Regretted last night, not saying "No!"
My cell phone rang, and I got a chill,
My body shivered, and I felt ill;

A long lost number, it was finally you,
Confounded, I knew not what to do.
I let it ring, knowing not what to say,
Alone once again, on a Saturday.
