this bitter scratch of need
that grips me by the throat at times
blinds my thoughts
and cools my body
do you understand ?
this call for motion
excitement and novelty
that gets me up every morning
and keeps me alive
do you understand ?
time flying by
intoxicates me and makes me dizzy
i’d like to take off with it
but it constantly gets away from me
do you understand ?
but then, this life that is mine
that stretches out her arms to me
i want to love and satisfy her
like my most beautiful lover
do you understand ?
