Our First Date

By Anna SleepsPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

One was enough,

Man we've had it rough,

And looking at you is tough.

They talk of love at first slight,

You text your friends under the table,

As I push through the feelings of fight or flight,

I feel as if I'm connected to a jumper cable,

Never has anything felt more right,

Could this be a fairy tale or a fable?

I've been so blue,

I could hardly eat,

But I knew with you,

We compared the shoes on our feet,

That I would always be the first in the queue.

And my heart doesn't fail but it does miss a beat.

There was 18 heart beats a second,

12 laughs a minute,

And 2017 butterflies in my stomach.
