I lay my head on your chest,
And listen to your heart beat.
I love that I can trouble it,
Make it fast, make it panic.
I love that I can attack you
With sensations you have no plan of dodging.
But maybe, just maybe,
It is the other way around.

Something about love, love, love, love, love. It feels good if the person you love loves you back :)

Thanks for the comment. But I don't actually have the guts to make longer poems. I'll try though :)

Your last two lines don't flow with the rest of the poem. The ending seems too abrupt---you vould expand the piece more for a greater effect.
