#giddy
I live by love, as I live by food
I anatomize my days,
weeding my time
to invest in him.
So I may love better.
For as heaven hath sent me fortune
heaven hath sent me love also
and it’s no counterfeit success.
He knows me - my moods -
when I’m dispos'd to be merry
or as the windy sky changes
and my mood's turned to scorn.
When we're in tune
we come, peremptory,
as if for dinner
to our more giddy desires
for I live for that love
as I live by food.

Silver words trickled from his lips
And settled on her sleeve
Where her heart was resting

Just for you, baby (only), I bloom.
Your simple smile lightens the room,
Leaving me breathless
And giddy – it’s madness.
Just for you, baby (only), I bloom.

When I see you I can’t help but smile
The look in your eyes is to die for
And that gorgeous radiant laugh can be heard for miles
You leave your business card in my shoe when I visit
I still have each and every one
When I’m not around, I miss it
I draw hearts on your calendar when you look away
I love when you find them
It makes my day
And no matter what happens you know I love you
That regardless of anything
Or the distance that grew
You’ll always be with me until the end
And I’ll always be here
For my lovely best friend

words fall silent between us
our hearts beating like butterfly wings
when your lips brush against mine

I will go slowly
today, I am still giddy –
with the love you gave.

For a moment
A simple second
You make me giddy
Make me forget my promise
But then
I have to bite my tongue
So close
Yet so far away
A longing
Yet it shall never be relived.

I like how you're
the sunlight that
lands on my face
during warm winter days
I like how you're
the meaning to
the sun in sunflower,
and the breath
in a baby's breath
I like how you're
the laugh box
in my body,
and the batteries
are still running
I like how you're
the happy ending
to fairy tales,
with prince and princesses
but no villains
I like how you're
just the way you are
so I can write this poem
in remembrance of you

Sweet talk,
romantic feeling.
Butterflies flying,
Stomachs dancing.
One ticking noise
and now I am rolling.
But what happened why are we fighting?
A swift moment,
is it really meant?
A romantic feeling,
Are we gonna be failing?
..............Almost a Love feeling.♥

As my hands moved down his slick back,
I counted the rising goosebumps.
Then he leaned in close to me
and speaking his dangerous words said,
"I want you."
Somehow, on that cold winter day, I melted

The way you wash your hands makes me wish I was between them
I don’t profess to know the future but for it you’re my stem
My bed seems empty unless it contains your light
And when I sleep with you I’m sure I will forget the night
The words you speak are unlike others and I know they’re always true
In the end no matter what it will always be me and you
I only feel alive when I see you in my view
But when you’re not around then my thoughts will have to do

I think we had something-
It wasn't love, but it wasn't
Nothing either;
Perhaps it was just
Stolen glances and
Laughing together
Perhaps it was feeling
Giddy at touching knees
And having nicknames
I know it wasn't love-
But in another time,
In another place,
It could've been.

Late night sneak outs
******** makeout
Parties, drinking
Speaking without thinking
To young to even give a ****
Please baby
Take this heart
Break it in half
and we will
never be apart
Mascara's running down
your cheeks
Tears start gushing
I'll come running
Your saviour in armour
I'll make it all go away
Please baby
Take this heart
Break it in half
and we will
never be apart
Lovers, friendships
Aren't easily formed
But you and me
have an unbreakable bond
Please baby
Take this heart
Break it in half
and we will
never be apart
It's so hard to look away
When you are watching me
Your new dress
Has me intrigued
And your hair
swaying gently in the wind
Please baby
Take this heart
Break it in half
and we will
never be apart

teenage dreams begin in the backseat.
fantasy and reality colliding among the crumbs pressed into seams.
frantic fingers roam the skin of the angel
who has given up her body for the sake of gratification,
and lips linger in the purple hues that ruin porcelain skin.
the capsule containing the burst of pleasure disappears the deeper they fall,
and eyes glaze over,
windows following suit as the world outside is lost to the fog.
moments of clarity intrude,
letting sounds of joyful times slip through.
intense heat swoops back in to suffocate the joy
and reminds them
rouged cheeks await his lit eyes.
passion follows them through their journey across the sea of the backseat,
guiding them to their final destination of a complete release.

she said she loves me but
she’s a dream and
i was asleep.
i mistook the disease for
little lovelies for
warm and fuzzies for
cornfields with bumblebees.
i’m brought to my knees
from the silliest of things,
it’s easy to see something crazy
without empathy.

my heart lights this earth as we
watch the sun
slip into the sea,
another day
swept into the waves
with my love beside me

What is wrong with me?
There is something inside my chest,
an emotion is about to explode.
There is a painted curve on my lips,
a joy that i cant hide.
There are words inside my head,
so poetic i cant contain.
What is wrong with me to feel this way in every words you sent.
What is wrong with me that made me feel giddy looking in just a photo of you.
Tell me what is wrong with me to stupidly be trapped in the gladness you bring.
Gosh! You made feel so crazy!
What did you do to me!!
I fell on a pit of happiness that you made.
What the heck is wrong with you to make me feel this kind of way,
to have so much affects on me.
You're like... you're like my
Happy Pills.

A few seconds of his face
A glimpse of a biological pull
A desire to push and pinch
To slam and hold dear
Frissoning blossom
Blossoming feelings
Feeling warm
Feeling cold
Chilling heart
melting once more?
-
Not really
More of a pull
attraction caused
Causing strange
thoughts scattered
Wait, what?
-
Is it you
I'm wanting
I'm wishing
Wishful thoughts
Thinking of you
Your smile
smiling cutesy
Smiling for me
(I'm) weird,
(Your s)mile's
weird as well
Smile for me
(Make me happy)

i'm not sure if what we had could be considered love
since i've been told
love cannot be known so easily
i just want that feeling again
that feeling you gave me
i'm helplessly craving
that giddy feeling of loving life
even if it's with somebody new
especially if it's with somebody new
so i know you're not the only one
who can make me feel so alive

Is it worth it if
you make me
frustrated
more often
than
you make me giddy?

I'm just happy,
I get so giddy,
I see bubbles of happiness around me,
Is this what you call crazy?
Maybe..
Thinking about you,
My head spins frantically,
My heart beats viciously,
Love you? I do,
Till infinity? Definitely.
