You Know that Feeling...

You Know That Feeling

you got when you visited me at the hospital? The one you got as all the blood rushed to your core until you felt a numbness take over your nerves, and you realize why it’s your heart, not your brain that you cling to intangible memories with? The one you got when you received a call (10:26 pm on Wednesday October 26^th) from a w***e on 72^nd street that you picked up on the first ring as she told you in a sultry voice (still hoarse from the last pack of cigarettes and last night’s f**k) that you were number one on my speed dial in the phone she found in my bra when she discovered me dreaming on the sidewalk? The one of an adrenaline rush that makes you want to create clichés like World Peace and Equal Rights you got when the starched doctors diagnosed me with a broken heart and an overdose of speed, nothing that a long puke and an apology couldn’t fix? You know the one you got, the gratitude you sent to all fourteen gods you were making bargains with up until the moment the nurse whispered a five word enchantment (she’s going to be alright!) and everything was beautiful again?

            That was what it was like falling in love with you.
