Have
you ever
Been
set ablaze by the heat of passion?;
Or been
hurtled by an overwhelming influence of inspiration?
Have
you ever
Buckled
under the weight of intense conviction;
One so
deep you succumb and become martyr to a notion
Strange,
intricate and distinctly, not your own?
Have you
ever had to stand for something alone?
Have
you ever
Stuck
out in a moment of unrequited love;
Throttled
your crush till you felt your soul should burst?
Have you
ever
Attempted
the impossible;
Or made
a move to alter the irrevocable?
Have you
ever
Anticipated
illumination from sinister storm clouds;
Hoped for
a twist of fate at the point you hit the ground?
Have you
ever
Had the
impression you were coming through,
But at
the same time, intimate forces were up against you?
Have you
ever
Tasted
the nectar of a friendship unforgettable;
Gone through
the motions of a companionship indestructible?
Have you
ever
Experienced
the delights of forever in a mo;
Been caught
up in perfect raptus that brought on a feeling of vertigo?
Have you
ever
Exhaled,
might be worth a try
With your
back bent to breaking in a tiresome grind?
Have
you ever
Written
out the stages of your own biography;
Laid to
rest all issues regarding your immortality?
