Rest

Trying to get some rest, I lie awake

I start to remember when we'd embrace

And all the time we use to take

Going at a leisurely pace

I relished each moment

Your head was on my chest

Taking in your scent

Watching you rest

My heart would race

My mind would swirl

You brought peace

My anxiety would unfurl

It was bliss

A moment I dearly miss

Dopamine dependence

Bombarding the body with chemicals

In hopes to find a semblance of joy

My neurons having a festival

Dopamine is scarce and plays coy

Alcohol trickling through my veins

Nicotine coating my lungs

All to be in vain

Triumph never comes

No buzz has resulted in bliss

It seems glee comes from thee

Your company is what I truly miss

With you is the only place to be

Tethered to the past

Though we aren't together 

And our separation is through

My thoughts seem to be a tether

I can't help but to think of you 

You're in my dreams frequently 

I strive to move forward 

With much pain consequently

I hoped to not have our final word

The chill of that night

The hesitation in our final embrace

When our eyes last met

The beauty of your face

In my heart is so much regret

I desire to make it right

But the actions of the past are set

It feels like a blight

Dopamine

Days go on, each one like the last.

Obscene altruistic thoughts

Pining each day,

Abhorring life.

Meandering through time, wondering why.

Ignorant of philautia,

Noxious notions occupy the mind,

Emitting doubt about one’s worth.

You bade adieu

I was left ado

The relationship we raised

Was suddenly razed

We applied the brakes

I didn't expect it to break

[whatisapoembutanexpression]

From our first date

I've been enamored

I felt I've met my mate

My head was scattered

Your love is all I sought

You to be satisfied

That was in my every thought

You were all I had in mind

The world was our only distance

With every hurdle we found our way

With every challenge we would persist

Each time we saw another day

Whatever you need

I want you to succeed

The ballerina in my mind

As you bound through my mind

I’m at a loss at the grace you possess

Never has the world seemed so kind

Blessed with a joy hard to repress

You overwhelm me with emotion

No thrill makes me as nervous as you do

You put my whole body in a commotion

This experience is something new

Everyday I’m stirred up

Shuffled about

Thoughts become interrupted

I have to let this out

You turn my mind to liquid

I’ve become addicted
