Broken dreams

Hopes and dreams of teenage years
Simple little things 
You wouldn't think would matter
But that's how life goes
Things go breaking
Making a huge clatter!
Just before my first 
High school social; dance
Things happened that 
Made me feel so sad
My one good pair of shoes
Creamy slingbacks
Big brown buckle on the front
A little heel and all
Broke that very day
When there was no time at all
To buy a new pair
Though we tried and tried!
So I had to wear my school shoes
Big brown ugly things they were
I felt so self-conscious
Felt so "Odd one out"
Didn't really want to go 
But "had to" all the same!
My first big "dance!"
My dreams; broken that very day!
