i'd like to think that what i feel for you

is tame, innocent, gentle 

like the love you read about

sweet, puppy love


in reality, what i feel

is a storm 

that i fear could destroy me

a flood 

that i could drown in


my chest constricts

and waves crash and stir chaos

in my stomach

when i see you


not quite butterflies, are they?
