there are a million tiny suns
behind your eyes
radiating rays
and maybe that's why I blush
when you look at me

there are a million volts of electricity
coursing through your palms
shocking sparks
and maybe that's why I shiver
when you slip your hand into mine

there are a million novels
woven into the cracks of your lips
confessing chronicles
and maybe that's why I enliven
when your mouth collides with mine
