Love Poem: Breaking Through

Breaking Through

A feeling washes over me
When you walk in the room
With each step you take
My heart beats faster.

My thoughts start to race
Like the indie 500 except
At a faster pace than cars
Could ever go today.

My palms start to sweat and 
That is not the best part 
My color gets wet and
My throat gets a lump in it.

I swear that my heart is trying
To pound out of my chest 
I try to fight this feeling but
It is still there.
