Silent Killer

When I see you, it feels like the world is going in slow motion and a million miles an hour all at once. I want time to stop just so I can take in as much of you as I can, but my heart is beating so fast and my mind races with something to say that I look down to flustered to speak. Your smile can put light in the darkest of days, your voice makes Heaven's angels green with envy, your eyes shimmer like the ocean blue and I want to drown. You are oxygen and I am dying to breathe. You are the most amazing person I've ever known and when you say "Hey", I wish I could tell you everything. I wish you felt the way I feel. But I know you never will and so I will let this love silently kill me, ever so slowly, so that smile never ceases to exist in my life.
