She Who is Like G-d ([info]viruswshoes) wrote in [info]poetry_guild,
In between beers
And the lights reflecting off the mirror ball
Cough then stand still to get my air back
Almost choke then smile and say
"It’s alright... I'm OK... really."
It's easy to pass off that loss of breath
That moment of asphyxiation
As something more random than true
If you knew
That I lost my breath
My will
My strength
At the sight of you
Every time I drink a case of you
Then I would be yours again
And if you knew
That I saw only your eyes
Reflecting back at me
In the beams that shine heavenly
From the clouds of smoke in this bar's sky
You might choke
And I know
With all of my might
I would walk away
