Sonnet 1: You caught my eye across the crowded space

You caught my eye across the crowded space,
The music blared in the subdued glow.
I found myself beside you by good grace,
What bid me to converse, I do not know.
Fast friends we became as we shot the breeze,
At closing time, you offered me a lift.
Graciously, I accepted, if you please,
A pleasant drive home, O, it was so swift.
Before parting, I turned your cheek to peck,
What a surprise! You gave a tender kiss.
You went no farther; I gave due respect,
We conspired to meet anew, O, what bliss.
Friends and lovers, we became so true,
Partnered, no, but our friendship does ensue.
