Polar

You are nothing but electricity
I am the ground to drag you in,
It should be the other way
But you follow me.
I see the lightning shadows everywhere I look.
And thank you for the feeling.
All my hair stands on end.
My teeth are vibrating.

Ive never felt so alive.

You are all action and noise
I am the sea to hold you in,
It shouldnt be this easy
But I love you.
I feel you thrash against my waves.
And thank you for the timing.
My body will envelope you.
Your soul is my anti-filter.

Ive never felt so alive.

Your descriptions really make the poem alive. Love the comparisons to electricity and a little crazy added into the mix. Energetic all the way through :)

This cut right to the quick... powerful wording, my friend! One feels truly alive when brushing against death. The person you describe sounds like a keeper... a slice of crazy is better than a slice of monotony, methinks!

Thank you! And I agree, dancing with death is a very quick way to invigorate a life. And yes, I will keep the slice of crazy lol :)
