Alive

I've come alive     with the night young, fresh, and unspoiled I see the pale, naked moon     as it peeks at me through           a window in the wall of clouds             it basks the streets in ivory hues,           competing with the sickly yellow         of the street lights I'm alive I feel no desire nor obligation     to sit quietly, to stare meekly          my veins trickle with intoxication              electricity in my fingertips I'm seeking allowing my heartbeat to lead me                 to feed me              My gaze cuts like diamonds            my grin gleams like steel       When you look into my eyes tell me, what do you feel? is your heart just like mine?     Do you feel them beating in time? We're tripping    We'll fall        We're hitting the wall Your skin tastes like velvet     My dear         you have me enthralled         We have only begun    We have time 'til the sun Wait and you'll see how to be                    Alive Just like me
