A Finding of Firsts

A first glance
Blue meeting gray
Stuck in a trance
Asking you to stay

Fingers brushed
A name falling from lips
Cheeks flushed
A heart beat skips

Hands slightly fidget
Picking up a napkin and pen
Exchanging ten digits
A promise to meet again

This poem is about two people meeting for the first time and hitting it off. They subtly connect with each other and decide to exchange phone numbers. They both hope that they will meet again in the future and that this encounter could potentially lead somewhere. The start of this relationship in the making represents a new beginning. They are both starting something new and could potentially begin a life together as a couple.
