When I See You

When I see you,

I am just happiness,

I am clean, I am pure,

And for that one moment I endure,

Truly, in a way that feels right,

In a way that is as it always should be,

In a way that robs me of all fight,

Free, hopeful, needy, and still in your might.

When I see you,

I am like a kite,

I am boundless and I soar,

And for that one moment I am more,

More than just paper held back by strings,

Destined to fall or be cut down,

In that one moment, my soul has wings,

From no worth, in the air I am the king of kings.

When I see you,

For that fleeting moment I conquer,

I conquer peace, war, the living and death,

I condemn everything alive and I treasure every breath.

I give rise to empires, and I kill giants,

I become your Hercules, your saviour, your hero,

Rise higher than an emperor, Fight villains and tyrants,

To die at your lightest touch, the smallest, weakest of ants.

When I see you,

I forget my place in the world,

I forget that I have duties and you’re not my right,

I forget that I have limitations the moment you are at sight.

I forget that you are not of my world,

That I cannot love an illusion,

I forget every law, every tradition, every notion,

I can only remember to love you, my love, my only devotion.

Because I wanted to post something. No other reason. A bit stupid, yes I know.
