Love Poem: Her

Her

It was nearly summer break, 
 We met as she bumped into me. 
She fell and I helped her up,
That was only the beginning.

We spent summer together,
Being with her, it just felt right.
A thought invaded my mind,
I couldn’t help but think “Kiss her.”

It caught me off guard a bit,
Girls shouldn’t kiss other girls, right? 
Wouldn’t that be a bit strange? 
Maybe I have just drank too much.

Next time we were together,
I was stone cold sober, And still,
I leant in as my lips met hers,
In that moment, everything stopped.

I didn’t feel weird, or wrong,
It didn’t feel strange, or awkward,
It was perfect. So was she.
I wish it lasted forever.
