Heartbeats that sing
Songs of admiration
Eyes that wander
Up and down your face

For once I wish
This wasn't a mistake

I take a breath of air
Let it exhale outwards
My hands begin to shake
Twisting my hair into knots

I want to say words
But they do not escape

Palms are sweating
As I recount
The many things
That I love about you.
