It’s funny how I can feel so nauseous
After such an experience.
My stomach is lurching,
Singing, groaning
Over and over again
Inside me
Nothing I do can make this feeling
Leave my body
Oh, woes of a stomach
Vexing this perfection
Exploring the darkness of the thing
We call love.
It’s funny how I can feel so nauseous al-
Though I am so
Happy
You brought about this bout
Of paradox
Ugly yet, so beautiful.

I really love this poem! Your choice of language was brilliant. I just added in some grammar edits to help the flow and rhythm of the poem that was already there when I read it (I adjusted the commas and periods and such to go along with how I read the poem). Keep writing, great work :D

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backwards. So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that life's going to launch you into something great, so just focus and keep aiming.
