"First Kiss"

First Kiss

By: R. A. Cvetich

I glance up at the gray and heavy sky

And realize what it is I want to do

When the first snowflakes begin to fly

I want to go and find my way to you

Then we can escape and flee so far

As the snow floats gently down from high above

Then I want to run into your arms

And finally show you how much I’m in love

I want to feel your hand brush against mine

As the snow falls and rests upon your hair

Maybe we will lose all track of time

But lost in you, I know that I won’t care

I long to see the sparkle in your eyes

That tells me everything I need to know

Like the sparkling flakes that drop down from the sky

I feel just as if I’ll start to float

I long to have my hands held tight in yours

Your fingers easing all the cold away

I know that I can’t wait much anymore

Inside I’m sure that today is the day

For comfort covers me here in your arms

But my racing heart is filled with such unrest

And I can hear the pounding of your heart

As my head inches closer to your chest

I gaze up in your eyes and hold my breath

As you slowly lean in towards me

I’m ready but I’m still scared half to death

But there’s no where else on Earth I’d rather be

We won’t forget, no matter where we are

This memory that cannot be replaced

When I couldn’t stop the beating of my heart

As you wrapped your strong arms around my waist

Fear and joy filled me at the same time

For I had waited all my life for this

As I felt your lips brushing against mine

In our perfect, unforgettable first kiss.
