/you are my 2nd of January/

everyone dipped in alcohol
gave us memories stinking of the same
I remember some
and I forgot most, you claimed

people planned the eve
booked tickets in advance
we joined the crowd, just to!
ended unconscious in each other's arms

pastries, balloons and sparkles
fireworks, booze and glaze
hangover was destroying the day
but your needy voice set me awake

millions of wishes on WhatsApp
plethora of calls to make
we discuss and plan how to
ignore people we hate

after last night's overdone party
I wake up to your calmness
after that noisy clutter of people
I wake up to a human mess

you are my 2nd of January
you won't pass like a breeze,
you won't run away in haste
you won't be forgotten
for
all
the
coming
years;
you
would
Stay.
