Like I Love You

Your eyes stare into mine,
exciting my already racing heart,
and gently forcing my face into a smile.

Your hands touch mine,
feeling like velvet against my skin,
sending jolts of electricity through my body.

Your laugh echoes in my mind,
the beautiful sound of the one I care for being happy,
causing me to laugh along.

I have never felt like this,
and I thought I never would,
but you proved me incorrect.

For each time I see you,
I feel myself falling,
deeper and deeper.

Please don't break me,
don't break my heart,
I have felt that pain before.

But the truth is this,
no matter how many times I have fallen for someone,
I have never loved anyone like I love you.
