It’d be different if we had never met...
But we did
Not some bar or library or clumsy
Coffee shop coffee date
But an airport
Not a Friday or Saturday or Monday after
Work nice to meet you...
But a Thursday night into Friday
Long into the morn
It’d be different if our
First drink was wine or beer or one of
Those spritzers to ease into knowing you
But it was coffee at midnight
And conversation
3 hours felt like 5 minutes
And it’d be different if we hadn’t
Laughed and looked into
Each other’s eyes when
We made love
But we did...
It’d be woefully, painfully different
If we’d never met.
But we did...
