I was deluded,
When it came to you,
Hallucinated a fragmentary change,
you shook me awake before I fell fast asleep,
Finally the us is over,
Weakness won’t let me slip again,
What I see,
Is a part of what I don’t want to be,
a substitute was what I withdrew,
with each inebriated kiss I stole from you.

Caught in a corner,
With impressing inspiration,
You fill me with an urgency,
I flourish like a flame,
With wild ideas attainable,
There is no productivity without pain,
You are a distant fraction of focus,
A transitory transition,
Befriending ambition,
To climb higher than you expected me,
The success I suspect in each step.
