Your smile stunned my soul
Leaving me in a daze
My heart starts racing
My eyes set focus on you
Following your every move
The way you walk with such confidence amuses me
The way your arms sway back and forth as you paddle your way down the hall
So clueless you are
You have not even the slightest idea how much you to mean to me
As you strut towards me the butterflies living inside my stomach go haywire
They flap their sharp wings poking them into the inside of my stomach
You have awakened them
The closer you get the stronger and more frequent the attacks are
Now that you're finally standing beside me the butterflies bust through my belly button
As they exit my body you mutter the words "hey"
In complete awe I still manage to respond
As you walk away a smile invades my face
My day has been made
