Blond and chocolate eyed was never my type
A perfect build and tanned skin?
Never would I have fell for one like that
It wasn’t supposed to happen

He waltzed in that day with confidence
Too much confidence
He kept on grinning and staring
His brown peepers never left my blue ones
This was wrong

He was popular!
What was I thinking?
I’m nothing special
I’m not like him

He had other ideas…
His ideas were right

It was supposed to happen
