I recall, sleepless, the hours spent
After the rush that night, when
We were both caught up with
Each others scent and heat.
We had drinks at Club Frey,
And after, in your room,
And every time the music
Stopped in either place, we
Smiled and laughed—I remember
Your teeth, recently bleached,
When you smiled—I remember
The breeze of air that hit us
When you opened the door—
Do you remember the way
You shivered, the same way
I do? Do you remember what
You wore that night?—the green
And blue dress I said looked
Funny afterward, but we both
Agreed was nice on you—Do you
Remember tripping onto the bed,
While your blue-green dress slid
Off the edge?—I kissed your head
Before I left you sleeping, and left
My number beside your purse—
But every night you never called
Left me awake, wishing I stayed
One extra night, and I still
Regret ever meeting you for that.
