I Fell In Love Again Last Night

 

I have a monster crush on you,
A super-dinosaur!
It sits upon my chest and throat
And yet I beg for more.

When you're away I miss you so
My heart is full of sand.
Yet when you're here my stupid fear
Won't let me touch your hand.

I cannot sleep, I cannot eat,
I'm so wrapped up in you.
My thoughts drift up, away from words,
And fade into the blue.

I know this crush is not your fault;
The dinosaur is mine.
Yet if you could, please rescue me,
And put your arms around me,

and hold me,

and say
you love me,

and Oh! God!

Would that be good!

~Nicholas Gordon

Love at first sight is easy to understand;

it's when two people have been

looking at each other for a lifetime

that it becomes a miracle.
