LIVE THE RIDE

I felt it

the warmth brush

against my skin

tingling

to tantalising

craving for more

suddenly

it stopped

heart sank

to the floor...

It was new

this feeling

of joy untold

but holding it

let my wings

unfold

I could fly

I flew

for a moment

I soared

but I didn't

hear the lion

that roared...

He calls me

shouts my name

but I'm not afraid

I know his game

he's fast and stealthy

he's smart and no fool

he's hungrier than ever

he can smell me a mile

but I won't run anymore

I won't hide

the time has come

to live out the ride
