Falling into you

I have always wondered how one could fall in love,

never understanding what it truly meant.

I hang my head with the guilt of letting go,

to fall without control I have found.

Never meaning I am falling into anything,

but the loss of controlling how you feel inside.

To taste the very fear that used to hold me down,

I let go and fall freely into her arms.

Nothing to catch me I am free to fade away,

into what she does to my heart.

She lifts my head as I fall into her,

deeply lost within her forest of love.

A smile forms on my face as I cry,

tears of joy, something I don’t really see.

All of my thoughts become of her touch,

the look felt as she pierces my soul.

Dawn approaches the night sky,

freefalling into what I now see as love.

Nothingness slips away from my life,

beating drums my heart holds on.

Searched out by death to face this life with love,

lifted up only by the angel in my heart.

Soft lips kissing the soul of the chosen,

I see her coming my way.

She catches my heart in her eyes,

feeling what I have never known before.

My kiss ready to taste her lips,

desires are ready to be shown.

Without wings I fell into her world,

when I open my eyes it is her I see.

Taken back to live this love within her,

only the lonely as she holds my soul.

Never can I feel what I can’t see,

yet in her love I am so blind when I fall.
