Our First Date

The candles burned bright in the dark starry night the wind was a warm summer's breeze blowing through the trees this night was special because it was our first date and so far it was going great we sat on the red and white checkered blanket I finally experienced love firsthand Now I understand So I reached for his hand then he turned towards me with a big old smile I could only stare just for a while, He scooted closer then wrapped his arm around my waist I knew i'd never be replaced, His grasp was so firm I didn't even squirm, I wanted to seem bolder so I laid my head on his shoulder, he rest his head on mine this is totally a sign, we looked up at the sky just in time to see a shooting star pass right by, I told him make a wish and my stomach sunk in an abyss, for what he said next gave me butterflies, He said he wished for us to be for all eternity I felt his words internally, I just stared into his truthful honest eyes I literally almost cried happy tears of course for I wouldn't wish for a divorce but then again this was only our first date but with those words I knew it was fate. for you can't look someone in the eyes and say those words so meaningfully I leaned in and gave him a kiss I looked back into his eyes and they were filled with bliss Then he stood up and pointed at me and said I will put a ring on your finger Those words will forever linger In my ear with the memory of our first date.
