Reassertions about certain behaviors

In the immediate aftermath - unfavored

But, down the line - a reassessment ...

Often provides adequate nourishment



For tender feelings exude from under the skin

When revisitations are made, back to the din ...

And parallels are made between diverse tangents

As mind shuffles sensations, with little management



And the blood pulses through your veins in rhythm 

As your mind races to float right along with them ...

But the tingling under your skin makes you retreat

For no matter what else flows, you daren't repeat ...
