Word of the day - STRIKHEDONIA
Meaning - the pleasure of being able to say “to hell with it”
_________
The way he asked me out
to a date
at a small cafe
near his place
with a book in my backpack
wearing pajamas
and a coffee with him
with lots of fangirl moments
and some tears to shed
over dead characters,
made me say yes.
For past twenty three years
I have been saving myself
for the prince on white horse
but not today.
“To hell with it”
I am going on a date with this man
who claimed
that one “yes” from me
made him cheer up.
I am ecstatic
for this date
with the man
who made me say “yes”
