Hypertension

The sky looks so much bluer
And the grass a deeper green
the trees are stronger, taller  
As I think I’ve ever seen

The sunshine brighter
Clouds are whiter 
Every step I take is lighter
All around is suddenly alive in every way

Am I high
About to die
Should I scream, or laugh, or cry

And why does my skin tingle
All my senses now commingle

It must be love.
