I never looked at him this way.

We were standing outside,
The best of friends,
Late one night.
The moon was full,
The stars were out,
The wind was cold,
Snowflakes fell and nestled in our hair,
Melted on our cheeks.
I shivered, and he put an arm around me,
Warm and comforting.
I looked up to say 'thank you'.

Then came the moment.

I felt my lips go numb
And my face go red
And my hands go limp
And the blood rush to my head
And my knees turn to mush
And my feet turn to lead
And the tingling sensation
Running up and down my spine
And the sweet intoxication
And the haze that filled my mind
And the voice inside that tells me
That the moment now is mine…
The moment is his…
The moment is ours.
