I didn’t notice it when I met him I just thought he was a pretentious snob Who wore shirts with a pink whale He was a mess and a half And I had other things in mind However he would not Go Away I remember the night so clear I was shaking in my bed Freezing Alcohol on my breath I needed someone to hold me I couldn’t get warm I closed my eyes and cried Just for everything And I felt someone crawl into bed next to me he held me so tight my body relaxed into his my head fit so perfect under his chin the tremors stopped the tears stopped and there were his lips against mine And that’s when I learned Infinitely more things about life

Him
I didn’t notice it when I met him I just thought he was a pretentious snob Who wore shirts with a pink whale He was a mess and a half And I had other things in mind However he would not Go Away I remember the night so clear I was shaking in my bed Freezing Alcohol on my breath I needed someone to hold me I couldn’t get warm I closed my eyes and cried Just for everything And I felt someone crawl into bed next to me he held me so tight my body relaxed into his my head fit so perfect under his chin the tremors stopped the tears stopped and there were his lips against mine And that’s when I learned Infinitely more things about life
