Frisson
I knew it the minute
I woke up this morning.
It was just one of those days.
The kind that makes me excited for the future;
My future; our future.
A day that feels fast-forwarded,
So it seems just a minute has past
When I return to bed.
Today I don’t care
About the whispers behind my back,
The stares.
I want to sprint -
Just to feel the wind tango with my hair
And make my heart race.
Running away from
The boundaries of high school.
I feel like I am me again
And wonder why I’m not like this
All the time.
Tomorrow, I promise,
I’ll crawl back into my box.
But for now,
I’ll savor the rest of today.
The carefree race
In which I am the hare.
Days like this scare me just a little,
After the adrenaline has past.
I find myself tingling, a grin
Firmly planted on my lips.
Just like the day I fell in love with you.

I really love it! I've felt it before and yours is the best description I've ever seen! Thinking back, I feel really happy now. And you know what? I'm reading this first thing in the morning so I feel that today is gonna be one of those days. Those "frisson" days. I really like the title by the way.
Thanks for making my day! 
Keep writing!
I feel like angels guided me to this poem.
That's exactly how I feel today!
I love love love loooove it, my friend
Congratulations!!
I know I tend to love all of your poetry, but I esspeicially liked this one. You can almost feel the sense of elation just by reading the words.
This was pretty cool. I LOVE days like those. I have ooone little nit-picky thing to point out, though:
"Past" should be "passed".
Just a grammar issue.
My favorite part in the whole thing:
Very well done, and very relatable.
