The butterflies do not disappear

When I walk out the door

They continue living in my gut

Their wings flutter and soar

My heart skips then races

At the sound of your name

Rest accelerando

I feel the tempo change

I am forever in awe

Of the lovely chords you strum

And the way my pulse matches

The pounding of your drum

Your eyes are like the ocean

The boldest shade of blue

I lose my breath with just a wink

Engulfed in waves of you

Every kiss we share

Sends my head reeling

A serendipitous sensation

You are my favourite feeling
