Drake Drunk

The first time I saw you, I wanted you

The first time I saw you, I saw you wanted me

We spent the rest of the time figuring out why

With every laugh, every smile, every glance, every touch, every… pause

“I’m not tryna pressure you, just can’t stop thinkin bout you, you ain’t even gotta be my girlfriend”- Musiq soulchild

Call it a moment, maybe I’m drunk or still high off your pheromones,

I’m imagining your high, your lows, your sighs, your moans — hold up

I’m getting too deep and it must be the liquor

I’m rhyming way too much, this isn’t even worth a snicker.

I wanted a muse and you joked about having a poem ready

Be careful what you wish for, it’s coming now slow and steady

Thanks for the surprise, I needed it more than you know.

Whether we pass or fail,

You’ve already made my fire grow

A kiss is worth a thousand words

I think I’ll close on that

I’m definitely looking forward

To again being where you’re at.
