Catatonia

I’m probably just dreaming.
How else can I keep breathing –

When my heart’s just jumped out of my chest,
Danced a jig like a fool on the floor,
Drooling, shrieking like some crazy beast.
Falling all over itself for you,
Just from hearing you and seeing you,
My heart became an alien thing.
And I just sit here, breath suspended,
Bewildered, over the moon, breathless;
Thinking, my heart should get back in here,
And stop acting independently.

Then my brain just up and left,
Joining my heart on the floor.
I guess it’s safe to say that
You’re a system overload.
