What's Enough?

My core feelings are the only certainty I can trust, that's enough.

Your smile makes me reconsider steady priorities, that's enough.

A moment with you is where I want to be someday, that's enough.

I listen to cyclical stories and a few cynical thoughts, that's enough.

We talk about society, relations, humanity and love, that's enough.

Intense discourses of all topics lasts days and nights, that's enough.

I won't lose my spontaneity, don't ever lose yours, that's enough.

I am Rachel, you are Tom we could play foolish roles, that's enough.

Give me a dog's muzzle, listening eyes, observing ears, that's enough.

My complete attention is yours you will not bore me, that's enough.

A cheerful, grief, optimistic, tragic Circadian rhythm, that's enough.

Smoke opium in Asia in the mist of a rough act of lust, that's enough.

You can arrange sounds and keep for yourself words, that's enough.

Be part of the world we live in until my time runs out, that's enough.

Trust me, dance without grace, laugh at my silly jokes, that's enough.

I won't ask you anything, but I will desire everything, that's enough.

Never feel 'not being enough', as long as it's you, that's always enough.
