A Pep Talk To a Mirror

Have to get ready, we're meeting at eight, I must be on time, i can't make her wait, what have I forgotten, dear God I'm so stressed, just remember to look at her eyes not her chest. I'm so nervous, dammit! come on be a man! exude confidence and remember to smile if you can. you're handsome, you're funny just try to keep calm, how can she resist such a wonderful charm? I feel better already, yeah, I'm not all that bad, I'm certainly better than others she's had, right I'm ready, lets go! you can do this! all right! what a shame she just cancelled our date for tonight.

Love your Rhyme. I know that men as well as women are very nervous on dates. I hope that you were just writing from past experience. Sara
