How great is the rush of falling in love
The butterflies in your stomach,
Blushes on your cheeks and warm feelings.
But then again,
How painful is falling out of love
All the regrets
All the what ifs and what could have beens.

I get so giddy whenever you are near
My glances turn into stares.
I try hard to fight these feelings
But instead I fall deeper each day.

Every time we are together
The butterflies come over me.
And yet I knew
That we could never be.

In your eyes
I saw the stars,
And I wanted to be in your life
To make them brighter.
But in lighting yours,
I lost mine.
