Before Last Night

Before last night she was my dream come through, Everyday my affection incessantly grew, My heart and hers poised to glue, When with her I forgot my crew. Before last night I had only kissed her, And goose bumps graced me body-over, The sound in my brain was that of a classic Opera, Life with her had promised no disaster. Before Last night our love was in express motion, My friends thought I had taken a love portion, Fools! what did they know about my emotion? For this lady, to the wind I had thrown caution. Alas! Last night in entirety she gave me her body, My love for her thereafter appears rusty, I now see she is not too far from ugly, And she is not the only woman that could make me happy. I wonder how all can change in one night, While her love for me looked to reignite, Mine for her fell from a Skyrocket to a Kite, This morning, I feel I was blind and just regained my sight.
