And my heart skips a beat

My knees feel like collapsing

My head is spinning like a carousel

My mouth is dry and wide open

I’m floating off the ground

I replay it in my head

No, he said what I heard

And my eyes get teary

The corners of my mouth are pinching

My cheeks are hot, no, on fire

So I run to the lake

And I am fully immersed

I surface refreshed

And there are people dancing and singing

A rainbow sits in the sky

I walk in the moss with bare feet

And the sun kisses my face

One blink. I’m back.

“I Love You Too”
