When I saw you...the room illuminated.
Wierd.
When I heard you speak....my heart jumped.
Strange.
Every time I see you...the butterflies in my stomach go frantic.
This isn't normal...it is crazy because it doesn't make sense.
Who are you to invade my mind, my heart, my imagination.
Day dream...only to come back to reality of you far from me.
What is it that captured me?
What difference could you bring into my life, maybe I don't need it.
Yes I don't need it, didn't get this far to only walk backwards.
The power of the tongue is extraordinary...holds the signals to your next step.
And at this point...I will choose my words wisely. Conceive thoughts that will bear fruit and not throw back in my face yester - year's harvest.
But...how good it is to have my senses back,
Nearly lost them in the whirlwind of a masked enemy.
Feet are back on solid ground and mind is clear.
Cluttered again with the everyday routine.
Seeing you now...The room is back to its normal lighting.
When I hear you speak, my heart beats like any other time...
And the butterflies that went frantic when I saw you have actually flown away, leaving this place vacant.
Weird.
