Alive
I want the blood to pump in my ears.
My heart to jump out of my skin
First thing every morning
My feet to tap tap tap
Till all my shoes wear out
The rich brown wooden floor to welcome me
On my 70th push up
Want the wind to push me back when I sprint uphill
Feel my stomach growl with hunger
Double up in excitement
Do a somersault for no reason
Feel my skin tingle in the warmth of the sun
I want to drown in beauty and wonder and awe
Every second of every day
Feel the animal in me arise
Every moment that I am alive
