It’s hard to search for words
When it’s your turn to be written about
Not enough letters there
To interpret my emotions for you
That weird feeling in my stomach
When you’re around
Make me feel it for entire life ahead,
Will you?
.
If you ever could be something for me
Would you be the sunlight to my December heart?
The tickle, the warmth
You could see how secure I’d be
I’m not a morning person
But for you,
I might wait for you before your scheduled time
.
Why sunlight, you may ask
Well because you warm me up without burning
It may not sound right
But you bring joy to my soul
No need to open arms
You wrap me from everywhere
You hold me, you relay on me
Everything I ever asked for
.
Still freshly stored in my mind
February five
My untied laces and panicky guise
So much chaotic aura
Sudden sidelong glance, twice,
Both of us, concurrently
Still gives me butterflies
.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

Very nice form as usual. Tell me a little about the structure of your stanzas--they seem to have 7 to 8 lines, the lines 4 to 10 syllables. Flows very well.
