it happened so fast
that moment in the rain
we were there by your car
i was going insane
i was flooded by passion
but held back by my brain
i hungered to kiss you
in that moment in the rain
but i knew that i shouldn't
i was racked with guilt and in pain
still i felt i just had to
and i could not abstain
i had to just kiss you
to state it simple and plain
i just had to kiss you
in that moment in the rain
so i leapt toward you slyly
with the intent to obtain
a sweet kiss from your lips
i could no longer refrain
"you know what i've not done"
i spoke without wane
"i'll tell you, but first--"
then we kissed in the rain
and as our lips lingered
after my coup de main
i smiled a clever smile
and of course we kissed again
and as we recovered
from the passion hurricane
i looked you in the eye and said
"i had never kissed in the rain"
