"Lady In The Black Dress (Chapter 6)"
  by Devin Dion


Man work couldn't have gone by any slower
I've been waiting all day to see shante and having dinner with her
I finally get home and I hop in the shower
shante should be at the resturaunt in about an hour
I get dressed spraying my cologne on
Focusing only on Shante, I am in the zone
I arrive at the resturaunt 20 minutes early
I look at my watch, it reads 6:40
30 minutes go by and I call Shante's cell
Five rings go by and it goes to her voicemail
An hour goes by and Shante still doesn't show
After leaving a nasty message on her phone, I am at an all time low
I get home and I just lay in my bed
I think about Shante and I just shake my head
I thought me and her had a nice vibe going on
And here I am once again...all alone
She could of told me she wans't feelin me
She hurt my pride and it's killin me
I really thought she was the one for me
I really thought she really wanter me
I guess this is what I deserve
After the way I treated women, how dare I have the nerve
just then my phone goes off
It says Shante and I am ready to go off
A man says hello
Confused I say hello
He tells me he is Shante's brother
I am relieved because I thought it was her lover
I ask him to let me talk to her
He says he can't because she died this morning from cancer
He tells me he just heard my voicemail
And heard the way I yelled
He said he only called just to tell me
And right after that, he hangs up on me
I sit there in complete shock
Today my world had been rocked
I think about Shante all night
And how special she made me feel in one night
Looking at that beautiful face it was hard to tell
Now she truly is an angel

-R.I.P Shante. You will always be missed...-
