I could call it "enthusiasm"
but it fills the breaks between my heartbeats
So it’s more than that

I could call it "joy"
but it tastes like non-vegan Nutella
topped with regular-milk Nespresso coffee
and cigarettes flavor
So it’s more than that

I could call it "excitement"
but it makes my skin ticklish
and it electrifies every cell in my body
So it’s more than that

I could give it some more thought
or
I could just call it "happiness"
and that would be just right
