You’re asked to feel
Poignancy and urgency
Statement of intent
You, could be the answer
Seeping through
Adrenaline-jacking
Trance-inflected
All that tension and menace
Gestures of rebellion
Unavoidable in waves
Breathing heavily
Overthrow sexual awakening
Withholding pleasures to yield
Overwhelming and infectious
Ridiculous and romantic
Get with the brazen,
Cut the sentiment
Time capsule your contagion
For the Titanic apocalyptic
Elevation needs no translation
Sheer force of velocity shifts
The technical ability
Cascading the yesteryear
Innuendo to start
That is only audible in the heart
Proper romantic odyssey
The moment worth waiting
Window-ratting allure
Desires so sublime
Stardusting dusk
Sprinkle a little color and flash
A perfect five minutes
Euphoric and save the rest
For every other
Mundane tragedy
The lived in and real
Explode into mayhem
Cue the cliches
Grand gestures
Expectations be damned
We’ve all seen love
Never been felt, excitement
In the great intangible
Addiction and subtraction
Of lust
Smudge the intimate
Universal feelings
Faltering and fetching
Collect your memory
To build another
Unspool your observations
Turn back the horizon
For the unknown
All at once, we’re
Alone.
