I fall in love too fast
it’s a scientific fact
that my heart falls
into my chest
when I see her
walk by.
The circles of her hips
creates an orbit
a gravitational pull.
She makes me lose
my mind.

I fall in love to fast
the theory’s been tested.
Again and again,
I grasp at soft flesh
and logic fades
away….

I fall in love to fast
Its Pavlovian,
my body reacts
to the bell of her call,
to the touch,
to the scent,
to the highs
that drive me
wild.

That love is suffering is easy to see, for before the love becomes equally balanced on both sides there is no torment greater, since the lover is always in fear that his love may not gain its desire and that he is wasting his efforts.

A couple of mistakes-"I fall in love to fast" should be "I fall in love too fast" and loose should be lose. I liked "I grasp at soft flesh and logic fades
away…", and that you put a scientific, black and white spin on something that is usually portrayed as something very emotional and confusing, especially the part about her hips and the gravitational pull. Good work.

this is very well written and gets straight to the point which i like a lot.
there are a few things i would point out though if i may...
Firstly, maybe it would be an idea to add a few more commas into the first stanza. This would help keep a suitable pace for the reader to read it. otherwise i feel as though it goes too fast and the reader doesnt take in as much as they could do.
Secondly, in the first stanza where it says....
'The circles of her hips

creates an orbit'
forgive me if im wrong but i think it ought to be...
'The circles of her hips CREATE...' rather than creates. but im not too sure if im right on that. sorry if im wrong!
i think that this poem is really good and because it gets straight to the point, it really involves the reader immediately.
good job!

I kind of like this poem it was written very well and I think you capture how you truly feel about this person. At first, I thought the last line was a little off from the flow of the rest of the poem but now I think it fits okay. I think I'll reread this later to see if I can come with anything else. Good job though.
