day two: arms.

there are butterflies
inside of me
they bounce
around in
my tummy

like broken
glass from
a window
pane, or
water that
runs down
the drain
they flutter
then suddenly
they drop.

i blame you
for this obsessive behavior.
i blame you
for the bumps on my arms.
i blame you
for that breathless moment
when i'm caught in the charm
of your beautiful
dizzying
smile.
