I am not old fashioned.
I am not the kind of person who waits three dates to be kissed.
The kind of person who needs a romantic setting in the rain.

I have kissed people who left the next morning, people whowerent looking for a relationship.
I have slept with people on the first date, and sometimes without even going on a date first.
I have gotten intimate with people who never deserved my time or attention.
I wanted them in my life for longer than they stayed.
I wanted those kisses to lead to something deeper, to something that lasted a lifetime.
If I kiss you, then I have been thinking about your lips for a long time.

I dont let myself get close to many people, physically or emotionally.
I push everyone away before they get too close.
I dont want anyone to feel that way because of me.
I dont want to be the reason for their heartache.
So I keep my distance unless the temptation becomes too much.
Unless I like you more than Ive liked anyone in a long time.
You know that Ive thought about starting a relationship with you.
You know that my feelings run deep.
If I kiss you, then I want more from you.
I want a future with you.
I want a chance with you.
I want a real relationship with you.
