you held me up
walked me home
found me to my door
and waited while I
threw my shoes across the room
and stumbled into a change of clothes
mistaking socks for shoes
while giggling at my own mistakes

with the world spinning a little faster than usual
you helped me back trough the door
and laughed at my backwards sentences
holding my hand
and letting me lead us
to another secret location
where the fountain applauded our
efforts to keep our clothes on
as we tried not to take advantage of the privacy

our sleepy heads
longed for a place to rest
so we wandered away from our new hiding place
and found our way back to your bed
knowing we weren't going to
rush
into anything serious
I curled up next to you
and let your breath
sing me to sleep
