That Feeling

It hits me like a form of ecstasy.

Pure and hopeless and tragically soothing.

It put me in a daze, where time wasn't real.

Everything was in slow motion and I could hear the music

Oh what music, such wonderful music,

It gave my skin goose-bumps and sent shivers down my spine.

Wrapping itself around my ribs,

So tight its harder to breathe.

Then came the rain. 

A cooling sensation, oh the rain

Of water pouring down and down and down

Off the roof and off branches of trees, slashing and splashing,

Carelessly into puddle by the street.

Drops of water on my face,

Running off my chin and down my neck.

Within a matter of minutes I’ll be soaked for sure.

And sure enough, you would think I had just gotten out of the ocean

Just left a feeling of weightlessness. 

When below my feet lies mysteries of all kinds

Which are better off unknown

Unlike some other things that I wish were known,

And off my mind goes, out for a stroll

It bumps into you, of course, I should have seen,

The likes of you no less, 

"I really miss you, I have for months now."

I'd say. But won't ever do.

So with that not said, 

You'll never know,

These feelings that I've felt for some time and

These thoughts I've been thinking and thinking about.

And just like that, 

The feeling,

Was gone.

Tragically soothing...Hard to find such a sensation soothing yet I know whats its like.
It always hard when you miss someone but as I see it, we meet people in life and they come and go, those who stay are at times not even noticed or appreciated and the ones who go we tend to want to cling to for whatever reason be, friendship or love...let them go, hold onto the good memories let the bad ones reside and dont dwell.
Nice piece.
