Deeper

I'd been at my friend’s house for dinner

My mum wanted me home early so I said I'd better go home

Her sister said she was going anyway so she could walk me some of the way

And she knew a shortcut through the woods

She had long black hair, green eyes

I wish my friends could have seen me

We seemed to get on well, on the way

Considering the age gap

She was nineteen and I was almost fifteen

She stopped by the river

And asked me to go swimming

I was a bit embarrassed. I said no

But she said she would anyway, stepped back, and stripped

The sun was beginning to set, as she slipped into the water

And when she was in she kept teasing me, so I gave in

But I kept my pants on

The water was warmer than I'd expected

We swam around and played

She had pushed me under the water

I could feel her legs against mine underneath

She'd hold my arm

We must've been in for about an hour

I got out first

I leaned against a tree and put my trousers back on

And she got out of the river and walked towards me

She put her hands on the tree above my head

Pushed herself against me, and leaned down and kissed me

I don't know how long it lasted

Then she stepped back, bundled up her clothes and said

“I'm sure you can find your own way from here."

I ran back along the path

I was late home and I gave my mum some excuse

She believed it

Then the next day at school

My friend invited me 'round for dinner again

I said no
