Sinusoid
My mood is a sinusoid - either bliss or the void.
You throw me in shackles, then give me a crown;
I get my hopes up, before they crash back down.
You make me grow wings, then clip them in an instant
with all the little things that make you seem distant.
A kind word, a smile, and I'm in a dreamy cloud,
until my doubts return, harsh, black, and loud.
I weigh every word, read too much into yours,
it's getting absurd, my heart falls and soars.
I'll get away! Move on, have a fresh start -
and then you smile - all plans fall apart.
I rise and then stoop, I break, and I mend,
caught in a loop, a cycle without end;
Just like the heartbeats deep in my chest,
you'll soon speed them into cardiac arrest.
My heart keeps pounding (I must protest!)
to get out, to you, like a bird to its nest.
Nothing else could send it into this craze,
there isn't a chemical as strong as your gaze.
It beats like a bass - that much is true -
because you like techno, and I like you.
