Sometimes it's cold
at 1:18 AM when
we're out together.

I know it's all friendly
and platonic, but there's
something that rings
in my mind when you say
you're grateful that I'm
here next to you.

My heart swells,
my cheeks grow warm,
and my mind jumps
to multiple conclusions
like there's a slim chance
that there's more to what
you're saying--that I'm
more than just a friend.

Maybe I shouldn't
romanticize our 1:18
hangouts, but there's
something different
about this particular
you-me rendezvous.

I hope you accept
my jacket when
it's 1:18 AM and
you're feeling
a bit chilly.

That's why 1:18 AM
is bad time to
catch feelings.

You start thinking
that there's a chance
to everything impossible.
