An almost perfect night

‘Twas again a social invite

A friend of both did send

At first not too great excite

But alas my arm would bend.

All the people of times gone by

Gathered at last at the same place

Greetings to all, the loud and shy

I found myself searching for your face.

Maybe that’s why I found my way

Maybe I knew I’d meet you there

So I did not stay home that day

You were my decision care.

So, awkwardly we met and started

Talking and better it then began seem

You held me back as I to be departed

I can’t help thinking about being a team.

We kept having the best conversation

I wonder how much better this could be

We laughed together on the same station

As all around carried on with glee.

And after it was all done

But not then to be seen

It came in thought as one

Spending light with you I keen.

Closest holding for now enough

Turning the night away and sing

Not to tell forever rough

Only a queen makes a lasting king.

My mind told me that only this

Was found wanting in this night

At the end when truly done, a kiss

But then again one day I might.

It was not the perfect night, no

But it was perfect for us, I do declare

Time given to me for you to show

Till the day that courage doth dare.
