you get to me

i sat in the seat of that XJ
waiting...for the day to be over
so my intense fear could subside.
difficult to breathe.
butterflies crawled through my stomach
as though they were sick as well.
nerves shot.
nausea swept over me.
my body tingled with anxiety.
i couldn't help but concentrate
on how sick i felt.
than, you got to me.
you touched your hand to my thigh
and that's all it took.
all my nervousness
instantly vanished.
all my nausea and tingling disappeared.
the butterflies flew away.
i thought to myself....
i know you won't let anything happen to me.
the ride in the XJ was okay
and i felt even closer to you
at the end of the day.
you get to me.
you always have. you always will.
