so cal
the forming of knots
the fluttering of tiny wings
the torment of infatuation
this is what i live for
this is what i crave
the ringing of the phone
heart leaping into throat
please please please let it me him...
the giddy dance
the high school shreik
a moment of composure
thank god for caller id
the casually high-pitched "hello"
that first glimpse of recognition
though i've been watching you for 15 minutes
from across a crowded club
that knowing smirk
for you know that i know you know this
these silly
immature
yet mandatory games
we play so well
shared cigarettes
lead to fiesty conversation
and fumbling fingers
brushing far too often
hyper-animation
i am captivating
amusing
brimming with wit
or so i hope to be
hyper-smooth
you never stumble
you are fascinating
bubbling with confidence
or so you think
our chemistry is almost tangible
pin-pricks of anticipation
frazzle chilled nerves
now bursting with electricity
the twilight hour
the grey area
a suspended state of bliss
flaws have yet to be detected
drama has yet to be created
string have yet to be attached
judgements have yet to be made
the forming of knots
the fluttering of tiny wings
the torment of infatuation
this is what i live for
this is what i crave

damn,
i could never ever describe it like that, so perfectly writtin. i could put my self in every situation ive been in just reading that, the whole memory came alive as those words flowed.
 
the original post was not written about anyone in particular at the time...just the whole concept. this however was written just now with someone in mind...it seemed more logical to append to this thought then create a whole new topic....
the torment of infatuation
rears it's ugly head once again
i had banished you from my thoughts for good
chalked you up as a "learning experience"
nursed this long overdue case of wounded pride
through writing
self-medicating
and eventually acceptance
yet here you are
a pleasant yet totally unexpected surprise
i thought i had completely annihilated those bridges
an accidental case of mass destruction
a catastrophy of epic proportions
yet self-destruction
has given new ground
for self-awakening
and you of all people
should be witness to this
thank you for the phone call
thank you for the invite
thank you for the second chance
 
I LOVE this!!!
I am now, at 26 years old, experiencing this for the first time in a LONG time...I love this feeling and you have described it soooo well!
 
yay! i'm excited about this...ok so my obsession with this whole "torment of infatuation" thing just spawned the perfect phrase to describe my joke of a love life. not only that....i have finally found something i deem worthy to take the place of my non-existent signature...

jeez im wordless i can't describe how this made me feel. its wonderful and it just triggered the spot of "i know what you mean." i love this.

this was my favorite part...
it was just the perfect wording,
the mental image.
sheer poetry.

i totally identified with this! some people i know *hate* that torment, they hate the anxiety, etc. I, however, am in love with being in love and wouldn't change things for the world.
thank you :)
