Equilibrium

Everything was a bit amiss, Without you by my side. My lips thirsted for your kiss, A part of my heart had died. Without you by my side, The world was a scary place. A part of my heart had died, When I last touched your face. The world was a scary place, The equilibrium was gone. When I last touched your face, My heart fluttered like a swan.

When it is only my reflection I see in the rear view mirror. Mechanical motions Robotic, artificial Forced, surreal Yet at the same time Complex, innate Enticing, fragrant Like a rose  So tempting to touch So painful to hold. Mechanical motions When I do this to you Do that to me This way, you are just A reflection of me And I make love to No one; no pain No recip
