it's almost as if
when we feel it
we are breaking some law.
after ten thousand midnights,
you'd think we would embrace
happy days like found treasures...
but when they arrive,
they are so unexpected (rare)
that we almost feel guilty for the feeling.
not today, people,
not me, at least,
I am going to declare it.
don't respond,
just feel it, too,
with urgency.
