It's not you that makes my heart flutter, Inspired and striving, To be like the butterflies in my stomach. It's the chemicals and hormones, That enter my bloodstream, When you're around. My smiles not for you, It's my body's natural reaction, To the surplus of dopamine and oxytocin. So don't let it get to your head, That waking up to a text from you, Distracts me for the rest of the day. And don't pity me, That I still cry when I think about how, You chose her, Over me.

It's Not You
It's not you that makes my heart flutter, Inspired and striving, To be like the butterflies in my stomach. It's the chemicals and hormones, That enter my bloodstream, When you're around. My smiles not for you, It's my body's natural reaction, To the surplus of dopamine and oxytocin. So don't let it get to your head, That waking up to a text from you, Distracts me for the rest of the day. And don't pity me, That I still cry when I think about how, You chose her, Over me.
