The Unexpected

by Ms. TKay - Cancer

i was taken aback
he picked me up 
 in his big white cadillac
a beautiful night
weather just right
walking along the lake
the light breeze had us wide awake
nature at its best
girlfriends leaning on their 
 boyfriends' chest
love was in the air
he turned to me with an intense stare
told me to guess what he was thinking
i wanted to ask what he had been drinking
but i took a good guess, perhaps, me?
what else could it be?
instead of telling me, he took my hand
there we stood, face to face in the sand
with the dreamiest eyes and the utmost respect
he did something i didn't expect
he leaned in and embraced me just above my hips
tilted his head and kissed me gently on my lips
to my surprise i responded with the same action
surprised at myself for having that reaction
suddenly i stopped and he looked me dead in my eye
all i could do was let out a nervous sigh
i looked away with my face rosy red
with crazy thoughts running thru my head
again he took my hand and we started to walk
but silly me, i was too nervous to talk
how could he have such an effect on me like this?
make me turn crimson red with just one kiss?
butterflies in my stomach and strangely, i didn't object
i'm usually quick to reject and change the subject
but i went against my own rules and now he's on my mind
I'm still trying to mend my heart from the last bind
This was truly the unexpected!!
