Intoxication
When
I kiss your lips for the first time again
When
I hold you in my arms for the first time again
When
you tell me you love me for the first time again
Only
you can somehow ease this pain
These
terrible, lonely fretful nights despair ravages
Ate
savagely at my sanity
It’s
your love easing the pain
Couple
more drinks and I’m high, walking on air
Through
the fog heightened by my drunken stupor
Somehow,
amazingly-everything seems clearer
Like
20/20 vision it’s the shit being under intoxication
Everything
seems so much better
The
pain a little less lighter
Laughter
at my inadequacies comes a little easier
And
when I kiss your lips for the first time again
Even
if I might be inebriated,
The
poignancy of the moment won’t be lost on me
Moments
like these are the Kodak moments of our lives
So
I revel in the sadness, the gladness
As
your kiss rescues me from another night of loneliness
Before
you I bow in awe of everything you are
To
know that women of your caliber still exist
Gives
me reason to still believe
And
I thank you…I thank you.
