73 - Wisdom

I was named after Athena,

Wisdom flows in all my veins,

But then you walked into my life,

And I lost hold of my reins.

My heart once beat in rhythm,

With a logic, wise and sure,

Now my breathing is erratic,

It seems I'm not wise to the core.

The last time I was in your presence,

Something surely shifted inside,

I latched onto your passing glance,

Till I was drowning in your eyes.
