I have the most romantic words to say
But when I talk to you, they all go away
I know that there are many ways I could explain how it feels
But I get this weird sensation, my tongue gets twisted and my mouth seals
When I flirt with others, they get sprung
But, with you I have not the words in my tongue
When it comes to you, it's hard to explain love
When with the others, out of my mouth butterflies come out of
I'm really not afraid of you, I just get speechless
All of a sudden, my heart starts to pound and gets hopeless
It gets hopeless to explain itself
But, the brain gets too amazed to pull out the words off of its shelves
I tell you I how I feel… of course I talk to you
But when I do, my heart starts to brew
Every time I say this magical phrase
My heartbeats get to a different phase
When I get these butterflies
Everything in me implies
My stomach gets to churning, my body starts to tingle
And my brain starts to mingle
I lose all my senses
All of a sudden, I get tense
And all the words leave my loaded mind
I give up on explaining…the words get hard to find.

I like this description of the tongue-tied jumble we have all felt when in the presence of our special one. This could use a bit of polsihing, but not too much, to keep the raw feel of how disjointed our thoughts and tangled our words become in love. Well done, thank you for entering.
