Attraction

My breath catches in my throat and my mouth falls open,

My eyes lock onto your dark blue irises,

Your eyes are sapphire gems and I want to hold them,

Time slows and my vision blurs,

My heart takes off like a wind up toy and I clutch at my chest,

A smile plays on your lips and creeps up to your eyes,

I feel my own mouth transform into a grin,

I feel like running up to you and leaping into your arms,

I feel like filling the space between us completely and indefinitely,

I feel like I've known you all my life, 

But we've just met,

And I say hello,

And you say hello,

And we part ways,

Dreaming about our next encounter.

Attraction
