my heart bursts like the first bite of an orange
exploding in my chest like that citrus
supernova's delicious turbulence in my mouth.
and in these moments I am unable to think,
sometimes even breathe
mesmerized til this reckless storm passes
and I can crawl back upon my knees
to wait on heaven - painful part -
but my eyes still laugh unable to contain
such bold and blazing hope.
