LAWS OF MOTION

Newton\'s law says that every object 

in a state of uniform motion 

will remain in that state of motion 

unless an external force acts on it.

And I wonder about hungry hearts and 

rough hands and bruised legs; 

and that night when immortality 

was coursing through our veins 

and I told you I loved you 

but you couldn\'t hear me 

above the roaring of your full heart. 

The night was infinite 

we could\'ve eaten the world raw. 

But the next morning we were mere human and 

we vomited our guts out 

with mascara running down our cheeks, 

and I told you I loved you but you pretended to be asleep. 

And I wonder if any of it was ever real, 

if the laws of motion are real,

or if Newton was only searching for euphoria 

within the hearts of dead men.
