I saw you and got nervous,
A strange and sudden thrill.
I’m not the type to stumble,
But something in me stood still.
You spoke with that calm confidence,
Like years hadn't passed by since we last spoke,
The kind of charm that isn’t loud,
But somehow pulls you near.
I don’t fall for charisma,
Or smiles that light a room
But with you, the air felt different,
Like spring inside a monsoon.
Our conversations dance and wander,
They feel both light and deep,
You make it easy to open up,
Then leave me more vulnerable.
Because I don’t know what’s special
Is it me, or just your way?
Do you talk like this with everyone,
Or did we find a rare doorway?
You always leave me giggling,
A soft, unguarded high,
But I wonder if the laughter will stay,
When my mind reminds me to be guarded.
You draw people in like rivers do,
Strong, steady, never rushed,
And I’m swept into your current,
Even though I don’t give in much.
I’ve learned to question men of power,
To see beneath the gleam,
But you blur the line between,
Am I way over my head?
So I teeter on this edge of maybe,
Not sure what to pursue,
Do I let my heart keep wandering?
Or let logic pull me through?
