Is this what love looks like on paper?

Is this what love looks like on paper?

A Poem by jessfoundwonder

 When I think of you it makes me feel like crying
It's because I'm over-filled with such disasters
As fear and hope and, unwillingly, a love for you

I just want to hug you all the time
It's harder to breathe, it's almost like I'm dying
I don't want to break anything
I don't want to break everything
If one of us goes (down), the other follows

I've got this independence and it stems from hesitation
Not much has been stable, yet, and I break a lot of hearts for it
I'd never like to depend heavily on anyone

But you're new, the way you live inside me
I'm not your puppet, or your child
I think you can hear this as I write it down

I'm not an emotional girl, under normal weather
But here, in love, it's a place, it's different
I want you in my hands
I want you in my car, at my table, under shelves and in every corner
I want you everywhere, all around, forever

I like the almost obsessive quality to this piece. You capture the art of being insane for another person with ease. It'll all dull out over time.

This was intense, I remember feeling like this many times. One line in particular got my attention:

1. But you're new, the way you live inside me

This emotive vividness of this is stunning and powerful. Your emotional range is challenging and confessional.
