What is this thing we have?
It’s intoxicating
Fizzy, like cola bottles
Except instead of being sour, it just gets sweeter!
Every time I reach for my phone…
Before it rings!
You channel through me first
Am I being foolish, or is it our connection?
Mundane days I endure
Striving onwards
‘Getting my life together’
But in those hours we have, something changes…
Days after I see you
Happy night precedes happy days
But inside a subtle clench of yearning
Wish you were here!
I sniffle in frustration
Twirl my hair
Why can’t the words come out?
What am I trying to say?
I can’t push you for more of your time…
Would it make it too conventional?
But then
Would it be the same?
Or are we figures in denial?
Neither wanting to admit…
A fondness?
Cos I can’t quite understand
Just why
When I’m with you nothing is spared…
I give all I have!
This batters me from both sides…
I feel heavy with something!
Like a woman carrying an overdue child
Content to carry for a while longer
But sooner or later…
Something is going to give
A penny will drop
All that is kept grasped in my ribcage
Will spill…
I’m a bomb!
Don’t hold onto me for too long…
Unless you’re prepared for my explosion
It may change you forever…
Or, sadly spoken…
Is all this moonshine and roses?
Just two pawns looking for an embrace
I don’t know
I don’t think so.
