almost everyone had left
by the time the clock
struck midnight.
you kissed me
at the top of the stairs,
then, after getting more wine,
announced to the room,
i’m staying here,
by the way.
my housemate
offered you blankets —
bless him,
so unaware.
you said
you’d take over my bed,
and i could sleep
wherever i wanted.
that was the night
i realised
i was madly in love.
i knew it may hurt,
but i couldn’t refuse
signing up.

i knew it may hurt,
but i couldn’t refuse
signing up.
this one is about a house party that changed everything.
