Weak knees, a lurching heart, a fuzzy brain,
A high pitched laugh, a monumental phone bill,
A feeling of unworthiness, sharp pain,
When you are somewhere else, a guilty conscience,
A longing, and a dread of what is in store.
A pulse rate for Guinness Book of Record -
Life is now better than before.
Although you have given me a raging temper,
Insomnia, a rising sense of panic,
A hopeless challenge, bouts of introspection,
Raw, bitten nails, a voice that is strangely man.
A selfish streak, a fear of isolation.
A silly smile, lips that are chapped and sore.
A running joke, a risk, an inspiration -
Life is now better than before.
Although you have given me a premonition,
Chattering teeth, a goal, a lot to lose,
A granted wish, mixed mixtures, superstitions,
Hang-ups and headache, fear of awful news.
A bubble in my throat, a dare to swallow,
A crack of light under a closing door,
The crude, fantastic prospect of forever -
Life is now better than before.
