I sensed this feeling grasp me, undefined
The instant that her lips had shaped a smile
And when she spoke my name, it magnified
To find its proper place within my mind
It seemed to center in my chest as warm
Then radiating out, (quite quickly south)
Thus energizing bone and flesh the same
Completely hushing each intrinsic storm
It was a sense that I'd not known before
An innervation daubed with impish hopes
So with my tongue tied uselessly in knots
The chaos in my head was howling ... "MORE!"
