i was nervous,
i felt butterflies in my stomach

i wore a form fitted sexy dress,
my hair was curled
and lashes were painted with mascara

my lips were red,
and cheeks were filled with blush

my french tips nails
and
my soft skin

i was ready to see this handsome man tonight

you held my hand when you were driving,

missed every light because you kept looking at me,

your eyes would never leave my sight

flowers in the backseat,
handed to me with a card,

telling me how beautiful i was,
and how i was an angel

we kissed,
and the kisses lead to something magical

my red lipstick smudged his lips

a night i will never forget

love isn't suppose to hurt,

i was just asking the wrong men

red lipstick

it gets you somewhere
