First Kiss Poem by Ryan David Ginsberg

We pull up to your house, it's the end of the night
Wish it didn't have to end for it couldn't have gone more right
Each moment I just wanted to keep forever
But it was getting late on that night in September
So I get out and open up your door
I look at you and know I could never want anything more
You are all that I will ever need
If you were a book I would continuously reread
I look into your eyes and you give me a little smile
I smile back and know you will always be worthwhile
I reach down for your hand and our fingers intertwine
If I were to die right then, I would have been perfectly fine
We walk slowly up your driveway
Not moving fast, but our hands begin to sway
We don't speak a word, I guess I'm too lost in your beauty
Have so many lines in my head, but I fear they're all too fruity
We reach your front door and I know the night is done
But I don't want it to end quite yet so I say a little pun
You do your little giggle that I have always found so cute
Leaving me speechless, so I just sit there mute
You grab your keys and give them a little jingle
And to the same beat my heart does a little tingle
So I lean in, nervous I'm going to miss
And you lean in too for our very first kiss
I swear the angels rejoiced when our lips touched
Throughout my whole body my blood rushed
We sat there for another hour, just talking
Our hands still together slowly rocking
Wishing I never had to go
Just wishing time would slow
But eventually we had to part
I knew from that night on you'd always have my heart
You walked into your house, I walked back to my car
Just laid on the hood staring up at the stars
Taking it all in and I still haven't forgotten a detail
I could recite it from beginning to end without fail
From what you were wearing, what we did, to our amazing kiss
Just sitting on my car, in a perfect bliss
Sitting there with a smile that would not leave
And for the first time love was something I believed
