“When I Saw You”

Tranquility surrounds my mind
As I speak of you out loud
I see you out of nowhere
And my heart begins to pound

My mind goes blank
I race away to gather my thoughts
But it is to late
Your already gone

Oh if I could only
Control this feeling
To keep some peace of mind
When I see your face
And my heart insanly starts to race

Whle I was gone
Someone played a game
Just to see
What your reaction would be

I don’t know what happened
Or whats really going on
All I know is that when I see you
I lose myself
And love every second of it.

It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that.

I really love the last few lines, when you say whenever you see her you lose yourself, and you love it.  That was pretty cool.  Nice work.  I remember those feelings... *sigh*
I enjoyed this.

All too familiar feelings.    I liked this alot! Keep posting.  

You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did.

I liked this one. I relate to it on some level. Well done here.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow

Your rhyme scheme started out so well but when it hit the third stanza, it went all weird. Perhaps if you fix that up, you could have an even more powerful piece.

All that stuff about the rhyme and everything has already been said.  I personally liked it a lot b/c of the images. "I race away to gather my thoughts
But it is to late"  I loved these lines, and I especially liked the ending.
