In your presence.. I'm a different version of me, your presence, interrupts my speech, tongue tied , I get that warm feeling inside along with a slight chill onto my spine .
My emotions rise just like butterflies and this particular hunger grows , in your presence I feel strange parts of me start to unfold .
Your speaking but I don't hear you , something in me makes me want to touch you, reach out to you and feel you in ways I wouldn't want anyone else to.
In your presence I'm aroused and soon ashamed , I shouldn't be feeling this way.
The sound of your voice is all it takes , giving my head an ache , this isn't the way it should be .
In your presence... you've unlocked a dangerous part of me.
