I can't believe we got
Paired up
For our project.
It feels like someone is pulling strings;
Strings that have pulled my vocal cords so taut
That it threatens to snap,
Sending all those words out.
I caught your gaze
When our pair was announced.
You were surprised too.
But then you looked at
Me and
Smiled.
I love your smile.
I almost blurted it out
When we shifted to start on our project
And I was
(finally!)
Sitting next to you.
I was stammering again, wasn't I?
My heart always beats faster around you.
As I'm thinking this my cheeks have warmed.
What have you done to me?
(i want you.)
