Chasing ghosts

Think I heard it for the first time today. That laugh. Like hot chocolate on a winter day. It felt like something that melts your heart. A buoyant feeling, Which makes a dying heart restart. Are they aquamarine or ocean eyes? Spending a second too long, Fills your body with butterflies. A bittersweet feeling, a poisonous state, Like dropping from a high, It’s a bit too difficult to wait. Living in my head 24/7 rent free, Hope you’re not annoyed, Just wondering, do you ever notice me?
