One Night...



One Night...

We met one night
It wasn't planned, but goddamn, it felt right
As you came closer into my sight
Like a beam of bright light
I wanted to speak or ask, could I might
Trouble you for some of your time
Which I knew the pleasure would be all mine
Your physical appearance took me to the highest plight
Yearning to know if what you feel for me is the same
Or must I fly solo on this relationship flight
If I end up alone, it won't be the first time
That I have witnessed something that I wished were all mine
But for now, I will just pray with all of my might
That someone will love, kiss, and hold me tight
And our relationship will be like the sky to a kite
Full of honesty, trust, and unconditional delight
Unfortunately, remembering that it still could
All end in just one night
