noah

hangover

the next day was a Saturday

and I woke up in my bed

instead of some hotel room.

i was tired

and my chest hurt

and my head hurt

from missing Noah.

at ten 'o' clock exactly,

i got a text from him.

my heart skipped a beat when I saw it

he was starting the conversation

and for the first time in my life

i wasn't the one to send the first text.

my body ached to be near him

to be back in New York next to him

but I was stuck in Connecticut

while he was at home in New Jersey.

but our conversation brought me out of that ache,

a little hangover

and it made me feel better about seeing him again

maybe one day I will.
