The feeling in my bones
could only be described as happiness
when
I concluded that I might be feeling that
because of you
the weight of it all
so pleasant at first
but as time passed
my lungs started giving up
all the joy fading from my body
when I touched my face
and saw the salty water I know all too well
the tears turned into harsh weeping
and I felt my face go hot
how naive
of me to
that I could somehow fool
my own soul
