Intoxication

I'm drunk.
All night long, I've been drinking in his
Sultry voice,
His big doe eyes,
His enigmatic smile.

I feel tipsy.
His eyes meet mine in the crowded room.
My body starts to shake.
My head starts to spin.
My heart flaps wildly to the rhythm of his song.

I feel wild.
Inside, at least.
Inside, my soul dances passionately
In synch with the wild clicking of tap shoes.
In my drunken stupor, caused by him no doubt,
I fall unexpectedly, for him no doubt.
I try not show my volatile condition.
So outside, I am a statue.

Then comes the hangover.
Memories of his
Sultry voice
His big doe eyes
His enigmatic smile
cause my stomach to churn once more.

I don't mind.
I lay in bed
Wishing for more of his
Potent Intoxication.
