Alive
I remember when eyes met
connection that sent electric shock waves
rippling to the deepest reaches of heart's core
beats racing at stupendous proportions
in expectation of seeing you.
oh! why does reality play
this cruel joke!
if only I could continue
being in arms of intoxicating dreams,
wrapping me with their exhilarating facade
now I wallow forlorn,
wakeful to routine's bland pinch
and atrophy soon embraces,
reinforced by appetite's disappearance
I close my eyes but the image is blurred
I only remember the way you make me feel
alive
