Its cold and damp September day,
The kindred flame I'll long remember.
I crossed her path & she crossed mine,
The spark we shared was so in line.
A close encounter,but nothing serious?
I'd think i would  never have a chance
but she had me curious.
The tension built 'till she talked ,
as warm embrace, my fears were subside.
All the while my stomach in knots,
we cleared the air & shared our thoughts.
Talk of our pasts, and our flaws
The hopes for future built to change.
Face to face, our eyes spoke words,
reading minds, beyond what's heard.
I could use a nudge,and she's not one to judge.
beer cans & shots of whiskey, holding hands
She opened doors, established trust.
One more dose of nerve eraser,another first, another chaser.
We walked along, enjoyed the view,
talked and laughed,
Alone at last, where to begin?
we drank some water, cooled the fire.
I dreamt for more,
was not prepared to close this door.
In morning light, our eyes would meet,
It was so nice to share a meal, too new friends.
I hope again, her eyes I'll gaze.
When I felt lost, inside myself,
I found my way to her and she found her way to me
