Snapping ribs, punctured lungs. My heart being squeezed and I can't breathe. Why are you staring at me like that? I've never caught a guy's eye. Why do you smile at me like I'm the best thing you've ever seen? Brown eyes warm and without doubts. I don't know how to act. I stutter and grin like a fool. My heart hurts. I avoid guys like you, the "pretty" ones. They tease and poke fun, I'm not their ideal girl. Yet here you are. Are you different? I enjoy talking with you, and you really hear me. The pain ebbs. Without warning. I've crushed. On you.
