When I Suddenly Remember (poem)

When I suddenly remember
That You are there
Always
In the corner of my everyday,
Here is what happens:
My heart jumps (both feet in the air)
My breath stumbles on its way in.
What happens next is that,
Unable to sustain delight,
I bury the moment
In a heap of distractions,
Sweetly anticipating that
Tomorrow
I will be thrilled again,
