It almost stopped when she hit you with her smile.
You somehow managed to reply wittily to her comments even though your brain has stalled.
You've been for a drink
. . . . . a quiet pub
. . . . . . . . . . not quiet so no one sees you
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .quiet so you really can hear what she says.
Her smile never waned.
She laughed at your jokes
. . . . . . . . . . . even the one with the camel in.
She was close
and moved closer
she took your hand when you faltered
and now you've said goodbye you're stood right by her car
. . . . . . she's not getting in
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . you bite the bullet, you kiss her
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Time stops
the kiss slowly breaks and you find
. . . . . . . . .the girl of your dreams in your arms
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .and as you hold her she holds you
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .as if to say "don't go"
That right there, that moment in time, is a hug!
