ONE CARELESS KISS

via Daily Prompt: Uncompromising

Uncompromising

Wanted to ask you
To meet me for coffee
We’ll talk it over
Why don’t you call me?

Tuesday would work
Will you be free?
Let’s get together
Will you talk to me?

It’s been over a week
I know you’re upset
I know you are angry
Please don’t forget.

All of the time
That we spent together
Should count for something
It’s got to get better.

Don’t hold a grudge
What good would it do?
Give me a chance
I’ll tell you the truth.

She didn’t matter
It was only one time
You’ve got to forgive me
Please say that you’re mine.

I had too many drinks
I wasn’t clear headed
She came onto me
You’ve got to forget it.

Never again
I promise you this
All that it was
Was one careless kiss.

Though uncompromising
I’m begging you
Please reconsider
I swear I’ll be true.

What will it take
Please forgive me
I’ll do anything
I’m down on my knees.

Let’s start all over
Please give me a chance
I can be what you want
Please don’t say that you can’t.
