He Kissed Me
He kissed me
and I forgot
we were different
as night and day.
He wasn't "safe",
wasn't "perfect".
His future?
An enthusiastic dream.
I could have gone on and on
about his faults,
but those baby blues
left me speechless
and then
he kissed me.
Well, perfect and safe
never made me feel
like that.

They say opposites attract....this is lovely! :-)
kisses can do that, lovely pen
This resonates with how I came to be married to The Bug, lol! I think both of us were terrified with the consequences, and please don't ask her to delineate my faults, but, well, it was a helluva kiss. Terrific Magpie :-)
Its those baby blues!!!

Beautiful post for a beautiful prompt -- thanks.
Great kisser. Great poem.
Naughty always wins over nice. ♥
Your lovely poem reminds me of one of my favorite songs from the 60s ... The Ronettes singing 'And Then He Kissed Me.' Lots of dancing to that one.
Why did his film "Sweet Bird of Youth" come to mind?
Lovely Magpie.
Absolutely love this.
