My Heart Jumped

How do I know you? I can't remember to tell,
When I looked into your eyes, the soul that I felt,
The zipline of chills that ran through my spine,
I couldn't explain it, it scared me inside,
A love screaming for help, locked away, 
The buildup of words your heart needed to say,
I never felt such anguish and love at the same time,
I felt so much it brought tears to my eyes,
A heaviness so unbearable, my heart jumped from my chest,
I could not understand, the pressure was intense,
