Our First Date

I recall my youth felt like forever, I didn't try to understand grown-up things. And spent all my time: playing childish games, dreaming of magical dragons with wings. But in the blink of an eye, my life changed, with merely a glancing touch of her hand. I felt feelings I'd never felt before: and they felt spontaneous; nothing planned. It was almost like a veil was lifted from my eyes: suddenly, things became clear. And I noticed the twinkle in her eyes, followed by a sweet smile that drew me near. And while asking her out on our first date, I boldly stole a kiss: I just couldn't wait!
