Sugar Rush

Sugar rush, pulsing though my veins
Happiness and insanity are uncontrollable
It makes me want to dance outside when it rains

Sugar rush, I'm on cloud number seven
Floating and fluttering in my own crazy world
It's like I've never been anywhere but heaven

Sugar rush, leaves my cheeks all a red
From all of my continual dancing and rambling
Everyone's laughter is stuck inside of my head

Sugar rush, you don't follow me to bed
My happiness only fools the world
I wish it fooled me instead.

Re: Sugar Rush

I really love the simple words and imagery you've used it makes the poem feel light and youthful! I know it's cliche but the words really do seem to dance around the page! lol

The simple rhyme and structure are really nice as well, making a really easy read.

And on top of that the symetrical layout you've got going down kicks ass! It visually and physically opens and finishes the piece.

I thought this poem was about a certain pleasuarable feeling (god help if i've read rad it wrong!)
The last verse did puzzle me a bit though...but it's not a bad thing, the whole thing is wholely open to interpretation anyway.

Lovely poem, keep writing

jaziz

Re: Sugar Rush

Wow, great images. The repetition and word selection actually almost mimicked the feeling of a rush and being a bit spastic! The last stanza was, well, a bit sobering. Great way to end it, making it more than just a cute little ramble but something deeper and more real. I am glad I stumbled on this one, very nice work, and the form was flawless!

Re: Sugar Rush

Personally the last stanza is what made the piece for me, then again I am a bit of a cynic and have realized reality often smashes things like sugar rushes and memories But I would say leave it as is.
