A Very Repetitive Poem

When all I really wanted was just another moment

Your hand slipped away

When all I really wanted was just another moment

A class was about to be underway

When all I really wanted was just another moment

I failed to find your table

When all I really wanted was just another moment

I failed to take a gamble

When all I really wanted was just another moment

My designated driver was lame

When all I really wanted was just another moment

I settled for your name

When all I really wanted was just another moment

The lunch was complete

When all I really wanted was just another moment

We failed to actually meet

When all I really wanted was just another moment

Your words made me smile

When all I really wanted was just another moment

We emailed for awhile

When all I really wanted was just another moment

We actually made plans

When all I really wanted was just another moment

I began to understand

And then

I was in that moment

When I was invited to sit down

When we drove through town

With the first Corona tipped

When entranced by those soft lips

And then, Finally!

I was in that moment

When I led you to the dance floor

When we drank a little more

When we discussed the night's selections

And shoulder machinations

I am pretty sure we laughed along the way

I am pretty sure something tipped along the way

And then,

When all I really wanted was just another moment

We glided in the car (nervous?) silent

When all I really wanted was just another moment

We had to be proper and diligent

When all I really wanted was just another moment

We were already there

When all I really wanted was just another moment

You hugged goodbye with care

When all I really wanted was just another moment

I think I caught a glimpse

For a moment I convinced myself it was nonsense

When all I really want is...a second chance

A/N:

Don't sit on your hands.  Live! Seize the moment.  Because you know --> YOLO
