Do You Know?
Do you know what it feels like
to have butterflies gather in your stomach
until there are so many that you feel like they're going to escape
the next time you open your mouth?
To feel like they will escape when you say hey as he walks by
and be afraid that he'll see them?
Do you know what it feels like
when your knees get weak
as you see him smiling at you
and the rest of the world fades away?
When you watch the sparkle in his eyes glow
like a candle lit by your presence?
Do you know what it feels like
to be on top of the world
just because you can call him yours
and because you know nothing will change that?
To lie with your hands behind your head beneath the stars
without a worry on your mind?
Do you know what it feels like
to watch him walk away,
knowing that he won't be coming back?...
