Every time I see you near,
There is nothing more to fear,
Nothing more to trouble me,
Troubles seem to disappear.
The proximity of your presence,
Not of you but of your essence,
Makes me levitate onto a level,
Where there cannot be a devil,
Where a sin cannot endure,
Nor a thought can be impure.
There I reach stupendous heights,
Never room for any doubts,
Drug completely takes me over,
A weight is taken from my shoulder.
But it is not a blur I see,
Crystal clear it comes to me,
Yet with words it can’t be told,
What inside of me I hold.
A sensation strong and pleasant
Shoots through flesh and veins and mind.
Nothing else, just you are present,
All the others left behind.
Here alone we are together,
The world we’re separated from.
A feeling that should last forever,
Makes me feel completely calm.
All I told you yet so far
Is not remotely what I feel.
Just resemblance to a feeling,
That I hold to me so dear.
Still I know this to be true,
And I share it just with you,
It’s the ultimate in knowledge,
And you learn it not in college.
It’s a drug so real I feel,
And to you I deeply kneel,
Because that drug is you, I fear,
It is my love for you, my dear.
