You give me butterflies
You put me on Cloud Nine
You lift me off the ground
               And I never want to come down.
I can’t help but smile when I see you
My heart beats so fast when I’m around you.

I
               Sink               …
                              In My Chair,
                                             Feeling…
                              …
(What do I feel inside?)
BUTTERFLIES!
