Fallen Too Far Into Happiness

My mind wanders and the world around me feels blurred,

Deeper I breathe and it fills me, slowly, quickly

Until, I laugh at everything I see.

My head, spinning, yet I feel languid and listless,

Consume me into blissful sleep, steal light, ‘til dark

Again. Suddenly reality is harsh.

A terrifying urge pushes me, I can’t stop,

Inebriations swallowed down, slowly, quickly

Scared, what follows is euphoria.

Ghost of a shadow, haunts me when in this state,

Yet he tells me nothing of worth, steals light, ‘til dark

Again. I miss the gentle words he spoke.

Ecstasy compels me through to you, your body

And soul become mine to enjoy, slowly, quickly

Until, exhaustion catches up with us.

Now, we have fallen too far into happiness

Mistaking insobriety, as bliss, ‘til dark

Then, the veil is drawn back and the truth hits us hard.
