Even if your dancecard is full you must identify with this in a metaphorical sense.

Punch Bowl Mistress

Punch bowl mistress...ease of ladled smiles
Heart now standing open...waiting in the aisles
Flowered corsaged lady...where did your lover go
Why are you alone tonight, watching others flow
Take out that open dance card, find a way to start
Never lose your patience dance on out for hearts
Romeo is bleeding...he's scared and must pretend
He hurts too much to let go...much less to just begin
His absence is a hint now to just let him leave
He tries but he's impatient...while you still believe
He screams from you this favor he never asked for proof
He spoke of distant pleasures...then you had to goof
This mistress of the punch bowl...educated heart
Clouded eyes of blue now...bluer in the heart

"ease of ladled smiles" -- I really like the imagery of this piece. I can see her standing there ... alone. Nice write!
