Triumph

a__pott

The same chemical cocktail

was never in my head.

With the swaying of a fox tail,

I’d bleed you if I bled.

 

Tears of sugar in my wine,

and a hangover for days…

I cry for you all the time,

but trust me I’ll be ok.

 

I’m the happiest I’ve ever been!

Doesn’t that speak volumes?

Sometimes I forget how people live,

cuz I’m killing time til I can call you.

 

One of the somethings to pray for,

one week within a year.

I’m lucky for something to ache for,

but I still wish you were right here.

 

Chi esser lieto sia,

I smile now by choice.

Di doman non c’è certezza.

But you only hear my voice.

 

I’m the happiest I’ve ever been!

Doesn’t that speak volumes?

Sometimes I forget how people live,

cuz I’m killing time til I can call you.

 

I’m filled with dangerous lightening.

You’re rubber on my soles.

What once had been so frightening

is now safe for me two fold.

 

You’re a triumph of my secrets

I seem to notice as I reflect.

No more stale or empty reasons,

and no more leaving or neglect.

    Long distance relationships/friendships can be so hard sometimes. But they are worth it for sure!
