Smoke Screens and Firewalls

get dressed up
look nice, pretty
wear those heels
kill those feet
die a little inside
Ah, Winter Formal comes around
and again, I have no date
I looked for him,
spent most of my time trying
trying to see into the seething mass
mass of humanity
smoke screens and firewalls

Author notes

winter formal.... yeah...

In a list

And?

    Outstanding

    The whole concept of smoke screens and fire walls makes me think of someone trying to be someone that they are not so you cannot see the true person inside. I think you did an outstanding job on this

    I remember those high school dances. Yes, smoke screens and firewalls describes them quite well I would say. I didn't even go to my own Senior prom (although I was talked into going to one with a boyfriend at his school after I had graduated)
    I'm willing to bet there is a special guy that was out there looking for you as a date to his winter formal as well. Maybe you will both find each other before the next dance comes around.
