When I See Your Face…

My eyes light up, A smile is instant, I bounce with excitement, When I see your face, In a crowded room, It’s all that I see, My pulse begins to quicken, When I see your face, Thoughts enter my mind, Romantic images then displayed, In a dream-like trance, When I see your face, Confusion dominates my ponderings, As a confrontation is made, Uncertain of what to feel, When I see your face, Ripping the heart from my chest, Stomping upon it as it palpitates, An agonizing pain is felt, When I see your face, In a near empty room, With only you and I present, Feeling queasy and saddened, When I see your face, Whenever you are near, Or far away, Tears fill my eyes, When I see your face.
