First Kiss

I am pinned
helpless
his dark eyes
tender and demanding
drawing me in
lik endless wells
with no bottom
falling
desperately clawing at the walls
but there is no escape
from that formidable gaze
as he leans forward
a slight smile
so beautiful
if he would admit
that boys can be beautiful
engaging his lips
then
a flutter of heavy lashes
and my eyes close
he is too close
and I gasp
as his lips touch mine.
