I want to feel again that rush of emotion
like our everydays were constantly filled
and every moment garnered a rush
as if jumping into a pool
or the steady bodily climb the waters
of a chilled ocean on a summer day
can do so willingly even though
maybe the participants reneged.

I want to feel again dreams
that somehow eliminate existence
and the cruel realities that reality
is all-too-good at branding scars
as days become vague memories
and those dreams drown
in the very substance that gave life.

I want to feel again moments
that made us not question -
it's those inquiries that spoil
otherwise wonderful instants
and bring back the harshness
that is monotony of poor design.

I want to feel again happiness
that once outweighed our individual bads
and propelled us forward to a bliss
that we both knew was inevitable;
only a matter of time must we wait.

I want to feel again utter passion
because without it we're doomed.
It is the blood that sustains.
It is the cure of all ills.

I want to feel again those flutters
only possible by and with you
because no one else sees me.

I want to feel again that ease
of knowing and siezing chance.

I want to feel all over again, with you.
