This is a strange feeling.
The acrobatic performance my stomach does when I think about her,
The feeling of giddiness when she smiles,
The heat I feel climbing up my neck when she says my name.
This is a strange feeling.

Why do feel this way?
Why do I so desperately want her?
Why do I need her?

Sometimes I wonder if I should be feeling this way.
Sometimes I wonder if I am ill.
A fever?
No.
This feeling isn't bad.
This feeling feels good.
I feel warm,
Happy,
Alive.

Every night I dream of a warm smile,
Auburn hair that resembles the fallen October leaves,
Hazel brown eyes.
Every night,
I dream of her.

This is a very strange feeling.
It is almost sickly,
But it is mostly sweet.
Sometimes I wonder if I should tell her,
But when I have the chance to,
My palms go sweaty,
It's as if I can't find a single word.

Why do I feel this way?
Should I feel this way?
What is this feeling?
Why do I feel it?
