I could not live without them
The elegance and permenance is not what makes it memorable
it is the image of each of you
strung out on a clothesline
with one throwing their had back in hysterics
and one staring blankly but never sorrowfully.
Life moves exceptionally too fast
and moments are captured
at the flicker of a light
and burn out like a match
in the cold wind.
This life is meant to be brief.
So I am basking the rays of sunlight
that leak from your fingertips
and I am soaking
in the smell of seratonin
and the fragrance of
the dopamine
coursing through our veins
because happiness
is a Friday night
with no responsabilities.
The gentle hum
of everyone's energy
in a poorly lit room
with a table
littered in beer cans
and card games.
The boisterous laughter
that rang like church bells
on a Sunday afternoon
made me wish
I believed in a god
and despite the fact
that we are all
catalysts to disaster
we
are
happy.
