Tele-Coquet-Ting

My emotional response gives me away,
every time I hear you say my name. Trying
to be cool, I  pretend you’re just another guy,
tell myself, this time I’ll be clever. But you
can always tell, I get nervous, giggly, gush
mush, then fall head over heels for you again.
The best part, is your communication back
creates this incredible crescendo between us.
By the time we hang up, we are lighter than air,
levitate for a few days, then craving those same
sensations you call,  the reactions start all over.
Next time, I swear, what did you say your name was?
Darlin, it’s so good to hear your voice. (sigh) You
know, I’m never going to make this easy for you, don’t you?
