Array ( [sid] => 106687 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => One-Night Stand [time] => 2005-09-28 16:12:46 [hometext] => I can't get this out of my head.... [bodytext] => Was it the moonlight
Or the gentle haze of cigarette smoke
That made me seem so beautiful,
Or was it the alcohol inside of you
That drew you to me?


You reassured me that your feelings were true.
The lust of those moments still stand strong in my mind.
You wanted me,
And I you,
Even though we were both already committed to another.
No one can ever know,
We agreed on that.


I guess I never realized
That a one-night stand
Would affect me so strongly.


We had laughed beneath the dark morning sky,
Shared conversation like none I'd known before.
I remember your voice
And the look in your eyes
When you asked why I wasn't stopping you.
I remember the beige carpet on my bare back
As we did the dance of love that only we weould witness.


You've been holding this secret knowledge with such ease
While I carry it as a burden.
I wish I could relive that morning
Exactly as it had happened.


Your words were magic,
As was your touch.
I sometimes wonder if these feelings are wrong of me to have.
I suppose I should've already gotten over this by now.
I should just accept that you and I will never be together.


All I have now is the memory
Of my very first
One-night stand. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 435 [topic] => 22 [informant] => lilyfire [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

This was well written. I guess i am lucky in a lot of ways. I hope to have a relationship that lasts for more than one night. But here is a song that your poem reminded me of;

"Let me hold you tight
if only for one night
let me keep you near
to ease away your fears
it would be so nice
if only for one night"

"If only for one night" by Luther Vandross
