Song of Love

Open mic night - it was my turn,

A girlfriend backing with her guitar.

I sing just like a howler monkey.

With my voice, I didn't expect to go far.

🎵

I was having a super time.

The audience got into it too,

And then I spotted you across the crowd.

Your smirk felt like a bad review.

🎵

Yet, you approached, ever so slowly,

Maintaining piercing eye contact.

You made me nervous, but eager to please.

I encouraged my fans to interact.

🎵

With everyone clapping and yelling out,

I danced about the stage like a freak.

To my horror, I fell right off.

It happened so fast; no time to shriek.

🎵

You caught me in midair. I clung tightly.

The urge to press my lips to yours was strong.

My head was spinning. So much shouting.

Then you kissed me. It was sweet and long.

🎵

Was this the start of something special,

Or was I just another fun conquest?

Discovering a new relationship is thrilling -

When growing passion is expressed.

🎵

I may not ever sing again.

I doubt they’ll miss me at that joint.

But what a story to tell our kids...

That is, if we ever get to that point.
