spin the bottle

fifteen and you think you know
exactly what you want is her

so you move the bottle after
it's stopped and protested

when called out for cheating
by the one you want to kiss

the one the bottle points to
you said you didn't want to kiss ian

and she believed you and kissed
you almost perfectly with

her perfect lips and her hair
brushing against the side of your face.

At fifteen I was a blubbering idiot in the presence of girls...
25 years hasn't done me much good;)
I like the innocence of this one.
