If Nothing is for Certain

If nothing is for certain,

then why is certainty the only emotion I feel with you?

Heart beats skipping like grade schooler's hopskotching on my ventricles

I was, I am, enamored that I, a once heartless being, could feel this way.

Uncertainty is the only thing certain to drown my thoughts

But if nothing is for certain,

how can I be sure that my thoughts are even real?

Who decides what is right or wrong, true or false, real or fake?

Because if nothing is for certain,

I say with great uncertainty that I indeed do like you.
