It is absolutely indescribable
—how I feel about you
The sensation overwhelmes me
like a tidal wave
It’s so massive I fear it,
yet know it brings full bliss
like death,
like God
The moment before the roller coaster
drops
The second turbulence strikes
the airplane
When the wave knocks me over and
I don’t know which way’s up
In my dreams, when I fly over ground,
open country
Discovering I’ve won something
Getting well-earned praise
The moment of orgasm
When I beat the odds
When I realize I’m in love
The kiss that lingers
and makes me tingle
The swell of pride
Childish play frenzy
All these things
are close
but cannot describe
exactly
how I feel about you.

Fantastic write! Love the way you played this one all the way to a perfect ending.
