• Love
    Hard to grasp
    Harder to explain
    Like holding water
    or painting air
    You only know it if
    you’ve felt it
    And if you’ve felt it,
    you never forget it
    That special one’s nearness
    their warmth
    How it made your
    heart stutter then fly
    Senses heightened
    Everything, sight, sound
    Touch
    Electric, quick, much too quick
    Short, all too short
    You’re on Cloud 9
    and you know what?
    You never wanna come back down
    Thump thump
    The rhythm of your heart,
    banished from cotton ears
    The first kiss,
    a fiery sunburst
    sharp as a gunshot
    It sets the frisky
    jolt of adrenaline
    out to play
    Roll of thunder
    or
    drumroll of your heart?
    Before it’s even gone,
    you’re left wishing for one more
    moment.
