Never Crazy

Standing in the doorway,
I am captured by your eyes
But my eyes are fixated on this love,
This love, that is written so deeply I get chills,
It's so deep - I breathe it through the letters you write.
Just the smell of you drives my mind crazy.
It tingles my senses, and entwines them with my crazy life.
I keep pushing, so I am not disconnected from my thoughts of you.
I can't get you out of my mind,
My system is flushing all emotions,
But the residence you have taken up - is staying.
And for now, that will be enough for me.
It makes me happy, for the lifeline I have
Is something that I can look back on, and play the odds.
It may never happen,
But I rise my fingers up and tap my temples
For you never know how life can take a turn.
