Pounding in my chest.

This pounding in my chest
is something that never seems to rest.
This passion of blood flows throughout my body
because just the thought of you always seems to overwhelm me.
With a flash your crooked smile, I suddenly know that you care
And an existence without you is something I cannot even think to bear.
The sound of your voice is one of my favorite harmonies,
And your touch is the completion to my most complex of melodies.
The shield I put between everyone I know is something that you can break
because your simple absence seems to make every part of me ache.
And I feel it is so necessary for me to tell you that
This pounding in my chest
is something that I just refuse to let rest.
