The Last Time I Went Home (A Poem of Drunken Debauchery Between A Girl and A Boy)

You appeared, but I didn't ask you to.

You wanted me and I wanted you.

I took a drink and you took my arm.

We found us a table at the back of the bar.

Two drinks in, but I couldn't say a thing...

So we stared at the band,

But the singer couldn't sing

And my ears bagan to ring.

So I doubled up the drinks

And the words began to form,

Then I saw your smiling face

And I knew I wanted more

But the words went out the door;

I sat silent, as before.

Soon we were both tanked,

Laughing and shouting over the band.

By the time we left the bar

I kissed you and you took my hand.

All the way home, we laughed and we laughed

Then I fell on the ground as 1:30 had passed.

I guess eyes and some booze are all I'm getting tonight,

But that's alright, by morning we'll be different.

Morning came, we were a mess.

With spinning heads and alcoholic morning breath.

I saw you peeking at me peeking at you

And then you hit me and you said to me, "hey you."

There went the morning, quiet and awkward.

So I rose from the bed and rubbed my eyes good.

We went downstairs to drink some water;

Three cups later I felt a little better.

Then we sat still and quiet,

All the alcohol had left us.

But somewhere in that midnight hour

I knew that you left me breathless.

So I sat and thought real hard

On the night that had just passed

I remembered Sam and Seu,

And how we laughed and kissed and danced.

Then I smiled and looked at you

While you were laying on the couch.

You were distant, somewhere lost,

I wondered what it was about.

I had to leave, you had to work.

The day was done, and the sunlight hurt.

Outside the door, through squnting eyes

I hugged you once and we said goodbye.

Came the time, as times come

And I drove home, to try and recollect

The way your lips felt with mine

While we stayed awake into the late night.

How awake my body feels when we are dancing.
