My Nervous System


Butterflies Elephants Whatever you want to call it, I felt it Shivers when he hugged me Goosebumps when he touched me Stuttering when he would speak to me I wonder if he can see me sweating Say something! NO turn around before you embarrass yourself Too late Wave Walk over Don't trip! Try to pay attention... to that perfect teeth, amazing smile, beautiful jawline, abs like Thor and- Stop! As smart as he is, he should be able to tell something He said a joke Laugh and touch his arm Don't caress, you fool! Just keep going, maybe he didn't notice Laugh some more he's worth it Dammit the ride is here Give him a hug and part ways OMG! A kiss on the cheek Break away but slowly let go He stares... Oh yes he knows.
