Haypi Crush
Oh sweet sickness,
Born of invisible threads of connection,
Try me now,
With the flash of a camera,
And an audio file.
Just a little smile,
A few syllables on a screen,
Just a little skin,
Between you and me,
And the adrenaline fever peaks.
With a side of jealousy,
And miles between,
Space and time do not mind,
The dreams that we may find.
Excite me with your answers,
And I’ll return the questions,
A little mystery in the pause,
A quickening of the heart.
Is this what it feels like to die?
When you’ve lost before you’ve won,
When you crawl after a fall,
When your belief in the thrill,
Fails to keep from breaking,
What could have been a heart.
How did we unlock the door?
That brought reality to the table,
Where the game lay organized and strategized,
And fate lay her heavy hand to scatter all the players,
Amused at all the digital hearts breaking in Atlantis.
I’m awake outside the failing device,
The crash inside the digital world,
Just like the crash I feel inside,
These tears are not made of code,
They are made inside the soul.
If only I could stay asleep,
To dream of faraway fantasies,
Of cornfields and war generals,
And battles being won.
