last night

i am nervous and my belly is churning
hi how are you   how was your day
and she unzips her jacket
beneath the blue scarf
i can see she is wearing my shirt
my heart races
and i cannot stop smiling
she takes off her jacket
the loud restaurant covers my gasp
and we are both staring
her shoulders
her arms
she is so beautiful
and I cannot stop smiling

i replay her kiss
her hands pulling my hair
reread each word
feeling it all wash over me again
and i cannot stop
