Whispers Of Our Soul

It's Real

i stumble over words
my mouth goes dry
suddenly it's too hot
is this you
are you having this affect on me
the kind i have never felt

not with the icy eyed boy
not with the chocolate haired
and dirty nosed boy
not with the red head who had the earthy eyes
the one who left me broken
the one who tricked me
everyone else who has come before
nothing i feel with you
compares to this

those were butterflies
darling what you give me is elephants
stomping in my stomach

they made my heart beat quicken
darling you make my mouth dry
and you put my tongue in knots

you make me feel the energy in my
toes
it flows through my veins
my fingertips
my elbows
the hairs on my head
everything part of me
feels this

what you give me
is something entirely new
and scary
but darling let's learn together
because i can see it in you too
the way your brown blue eyes

---i didn't mention?
his eyes are other worldly
from far away i swear they're brown
big and innocent
they catch my gaze for a second before hiding behind your lashes
but then i got closer
and they were midnight blue
enticing and beautiful
they stared into my grey eyes like they wanted to know my soul
they wanted me---

your brown blue eyes
they light up the whole room
when i make my way over
and your hands
they are shaking.
and i felt you shiver
but all we did was brush arms together

you give me something
that i can't quite name
like there are stakes now
there were always stakes
but now i feel as if i have something
to lose
with you it's there
and i feel it
i feel it

with you it's something real
i stumble over words
my mouth goes dry
suddenly it's too hot
is this you
are you having this affect on me
the kind i have never felt
