"The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain, and so obvious, and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves."
-Alan Watts

The nostalgia of infatuation consumes me

My body goes limp 

remembering your gentle hands 

on my hurt body. 

 For a moment,

I cannot remember who I am
