The Plan

 

 

I promised myself

I’d never fall

So around my heart

I’ve built a wall

I’ve convinced myself

Love will never find me again

But destiny knew better

Just a matter of how and when  

That night you asked me on a date

To me it was just another night

Getting to know a friend

Chilling, sharing a plate

In my head I went over the rules

Telling myself to play it cool

If it seems too good

Leave reason for doubt

Be a good girl and no staying out

If sex was the question – always wait

And no kissing until at least the 2^nd date  

My rules were simple

I had a good plan

Dinner and a Movie

And a few winning hands

But then you kissed me

And everything went black

Nervously I pulled back

Trying to grasp the composure,
my emotions lack  

Your persistence I admire

Dauntingly your eyes showed desire 

I started thinking I should call It a night

But my limbs were too weak to put up a fight

You kissed me again and I slowly gave in

Right then …

I cared less who you were

Or where you’ve been

I kept thinking

We can write our destiny

Chapter One…

This is where, our story begins 

Meeting you was fate 

But falling in Love

Was never in the plan

For while emotionally

I was trying to sneak out

My untamed heart

Somehow snuck you in
