I am so enamoured by your smile

By: Akasha Sierra Hiler

I am so enamoured by your smile.
What is it that you do to me,
that I can't even look in your eyes?
Maybe I am in fear of you,
looking through the depths of my soul,
and that I would reveal all this passion
I have bottled inside for you.

I act so dumbfounded as you walk through the door,
my tongue gets tied and my vocal chords knot up.
I become weak at the knees,
and flabbergasted with excitement.

Oh, how I wish you knew what you did to me.
Maybe my nights wouldn't be so restless,
and maybe my days wouldn't be so intense.
