infatuation!

slipping through the quick sand called life
we find ourselves at the place which we thought we had left behind
the slow move towards the goal is distracted
all cause you looked at me and my heart reacted

the practical way of life, now astray
in the sunshine of love, there is no hope's ray
with butterflies in my stomach and my heart in my mouth
my lips stay sealed, while my brain shouts

how do i run from myself i wonder?
when there is a smile on my face through rain and thunder
no pieces of wisdom affects anymore
nothing scares me as i sail happily to the shore

and when we talk i try to pretend
while every emotion in me bends
i laugh a little too loud, i speak a little too soft
i listen amazed even when you are describing a dingy loft!

stop heart! listen to me i say!
i just met you in the month of may!
yet my life seems different, brighter and whole
love is the artist and the canvas is a piece to behold

what does this feeling have stored for me?
will you look and see?
or will you get lost in the sea of faces
as another story left incomplete in lifes mazes?

will i have the courage to be bold?
will my hearts love be enough for you to be sold?
so many questions but the answers are none
cause when i see you my heart stops and my feet run
