October 30, Sometime in the Afternoon, In the Front Seats of His Car

My first kiss wasn't love at first sight

It was not with a crush

It wasn't like magic

It wasn't like sunlight

 

My first was awkward

It was lips to lips

and tongue to mouth

and teeth to teeth

 

I giggled when it happened

because I had no idea what I was doing

It was following an age old process

that was new

It was exhilarating

But we weren't in love

 

He was a friend

I wanted to get kissed

and he wanted to kiss

He is still my friend

and we still want to kiss

 

I thought my first kiss would be with

someone I had a crush on

I'm glad it wasn't

It took me three tries to get it right

That's okay it was still wonderful
