It was all perfect:

the night was clear,

our chat was funny,

and the time was dear.

---

You were all smiles,

and your eyes were bright;

I was confident

and the moment felt right.

---

We talked a while

sharing moments of fun,

but the night had an end

and the goodbyes begun.

---

Now I wonder if somehow

can this be repeated?

---

I promise: for next time

It won't be a miss

I'll give you a hug

and a sweet, good night kiss.
