Hello! I thought I would share one of my poems from my e-book collection, Sunshine after Rain, available via Amazon, with you. I wrote the poems as a way of distancing myself from my bigger writing projects at the time and it was a lot of fun! This poem is called Head Over Heels. Enjoy!
That feeling that envelopes you
Crushes your heart, soul-gazing
You wonder will you ever breathe normally again
Or look at the world the same
Everything seems bolder, brighter
A technicolour of hues, a paint box
The sky above you, a hundred shades of blue
You smile at strangers, hum in the streets
Work falls away like a fantasy, a long holiday
Energy rushes, sleep is dreamy, evasive
This is what being in love is, head over heels
You lose your appetite, weightless you drown
You check your phone every few minutes
Smiling wide, it reaches your eyes
You wait for the ping, the screen to flash
With a racing pulse you imagine the words unfolding
When you talk your voice shakes, speak too quickly
Your palms sweat, you’re infatuated
Life is wondrous, magical, a new tambourine
How amazingly musical life suddenly seems
Each time you think of your lover
Images of goddesses appear, a seashell speaks to you
Her perfumed scent wows you, head over heels
This is exactly where you long to be
Thank you so much for reading my poem and if you would like to read some more, the collection is free on KindleUnlimited or 1.99 on Kindle. Until next time, Happy Reading, Happy Writing, Happy YOU!
