A soft, calming smile,

Or an inviting, fun grin?

How much trouble

Will each get me in?

One’s just a boy,

Incapable of hurting.

Another is a man,

One that loved the flirting.

He’s always sweet to me,

Walks me home every night.

Lays a kiss on my cheek,

Always treating me right.

He’s not mean but joking,

He gives me all but half.

He likes to shoot a wink,

Which always makes me laugh.

He always talks with me,

With the other I'm ignored.

He always flirts with me,

With the other I am bored.

Something calls me to danger,

Is the one who is tough,

But life without innocence,

Is sure to be rough.

I dream of perfection,

Us strolling hand in hand,

But without the excitement,

It’ll never be grand.

So what do I choose?

I choose true love’s kiss,

“With who?” You ask.

The one that I’d miss.

I care for the thrill,

And I care for the fun.

I care for the winks

And I care for the puns.

But nothing compares,

To the love that I feel,

When you glance at me,

And I feel something real.
