i'd never been there before
but the way the lights danced off the river made it beautiful
knowing that we were hidden in a secret place where no one would ever think to look for us
made it damn near romantic, despite how cold it was outside
on the ride home
the car next to us revved their engine at the red light
you pretended not to notice as we continued in coversation
but when the light turned green
you left them in the dust
as we pulled into my driveway
you told me not to get out yet
and walked around to open my car door for me
then gave me a hug
and i walked upstairs
carrying the pink roses you got me because you knew they were my favorite color
you're 23
with no tattoos
and no desire to ever get one
and i'm willing to take a shot in the dark
and guess that you've never owned a guitar
nor can you play one
you are nothing of my type
but those guys kept ending catastrophically
so i guess we'll see
