The One
It was a girl with beauty unlike the models of fame,
a girl with beauty unlike what the many have laid eyes upon;
I wish to converse with her, yet I felt so lame.
I did not have much, so what could I gain?
I caught her looking over at me, in this place;
she was looking right at me, no question.
I was debating in my mind, while looking at her pretty face,
what should I say to her?
Up to her I took a step, and the words flowed freely,
from out my mouth they came.
"w-want m-me to, you are b-beautiful, b-buy you something?"
I could not believe, my own cool.
"You have a pretty nose," I told her now.
It took her a moment to respond now,
but then she looked at me, and smiled.
"Thanks," she told me, "but I am dating somebody."
Was what she said. But my plan was not over,
if I had one.
"Shall we go out and dance, as friends?"
"No," comes her answer.
"I know you want to," I say.
I hug her in a sweet, sweet embrace;
she squirms, though I know she likes it.
Best moment of my life.
Now I think back to her beauty,
that sweet hug;
her sweet name.
Then I remember,
while sitting here in jail,
what was her name?
