Help, I'm Falling Apart

When I heard your voice,
I didn't think it was you because
I wanted so badly to hear your voice ask for me.    
You weren't supposed to call for days.  I'm glad you did.
Then my overwhelming joy made me smile and
I had to sit down because my legs shook.

When you called,
My heart few out of my body and my brain went too.
I was so happy I couldn't put sentences together.
You make me want to be a better person,
But you ruin my ability to converse rationally.
I can only smile, as if you can see through the phone.

When you said my name,
My every thought left - except how happy you make me
You say so many small things that let me know you care.
I don't hear them, until days later thinking back.
When, sad and missing you, I replay over and over my memories.
Is this love . . . or I have I tripped over my heels and hit my head?
