Emotional intoxication

by Ephemeralthoughts

I look up to the sky, cold and gray, leaving me reminiscing of my mortal decay Swollen with fear, I whisper comforting phrases into your ear, Nothing but the stolid rain Kissing away our mental bane Leaves us empty, wandering like midnight, in a vacant train So we stay teetering on the edge of reflection Our minds give away to sicking deceptions. We move in, to seize what so awkwardly keeps us dismayed Closer Wait we just may I wrap my tongue tightly around the tips of your lips Hoping never to lose my grip. Your heart's tickled, spreading sunshine like ripples beaming beyond what is believably permissible But so soon to pass the moment cannot last Vanishing like tears in an ocean, This moment, Gone forever like a fleeting motion Soon to be a stale memory Waiting to be filtered by time's relentless lapsing devotion Now I wait for this thought to wash up one deary morning Forever anticipating that beautiful, but distant emotion
