And during the summer
holidays, I finally gave in
to you and your games and
sweet words that never failed
to make me smile, but
also want to hate you more,
since I knew you said those
words to other girls too; ones
much prettier than I could
ever be.
And yet – despite everything
that I ever promised and told
myself – at that beach house
we kissed for the first time,
much more than just once;
I won't lie.
And I wish I could say that I
didn’t really want it to happen,
but at the time I really did;
of course I did.
