When I see your face
nothing else matters
my heart starts to race,
all my thoughts scatter.

Your smile so winsome
makes me start to sweat:
My limbic system
sees you as a threat.

I’m flooded with fear,
not joy and delight.
The sight of you, dear,
triggers fight-or-flight.

    Not bad. Have you considered medications though? As long as you’re otherwise actually safe it can dampen the reaction and help you reset it.
