“Everything is clearer when you’re in love.”

and the air is warmer.
the sun is brighter.
the wind is calmer.
the grass feels softer.

you hear sounds
that you didn't notice before.
small details that
seemed meaningless,
are now of utmost importance.

skin is more sensitive
to any contact.
and butterflies have made
my body their permanent home.
I can feel their wings beat
whenever I see you.

thoughts always trail off to you
and I can't help but wonder
if I'm on your mind too.
what goes through your head
when you hear my name,
or see me after a long period of time?

emotions and feelings are enhanced.
you know, I never thought of myself
to be a jealous person
but I am insanely jealous now,
of anyone who sees you everyday.

because that should be me.
