Thud thud, like the beat of a battle drum, Hallowed cries of victory Within the capillaries of your body, A faint pulsation of adrenaline, Fresh from the free fall of another Spiralling of self control, Beneath layers of fair, smooth skin lies the undulating tide of blood and oxygen, Cascading down narrow slivers of your veins. each shuddered breath is another catalyst of Life, Another slam on the accelerator that surges you further down the fast lane, Those faint pulses of yours Never cease to amaze me.
