Our First Date

I recall when youth felt like forever, for I did not understand grown-up things. I spent all my time playing childish games, dreaming of magical dragons with wings. But in the blink of an eye, my life changed, with merely a glancing touch of her hand. I felt feelings I'd never felt before, it was spontaneous; nothing was planned. It was like a veil suddenly lifted, what was once invisible became clear. And I noticed the hazel in her eyes, followed by a sweet smile that drew me near. I shyly asked her out for our first date; and then boldly stole a kiss; I couldn't wait!
