In corny cartoons,
And cheesy adventure movies,
The hero always falls from a cliff.
A tree root always protrudes and saves them.

Love, you are my hero. The strongest man
I have ever known.
But tonight, you fell. I was worried when you
First looked at me that way
And came closer. And you fell.

I want to stop you, mid freefall.
I want to save you like you saved me.
Let me be the tree root that you grasp
And hang onto for dear life.

Let me be the hero for once.

I know who I am now.
I think I've said enough already.

Like love, just know time.
Checked on the words on the latest poems list. The first four words on the list created this and it called to me.

Months since then, and
I can hardly thing of anything else.
My friend told me that she is surprised that
We are still together. You don't know her, but she knows about you.
When I tell her about us, she said I had a light in my eyes.
And then she said, "Wow.... You're still together?"

All I could say is... I know.
I didn't expect it either.
High school relationships never last. I didn't expect this to go as far as it did, but I must admit...
I can not be any happier.

Eleven days. Half of a year.

You've heard the story. You've heard the tale of the girl falling through
The looking glass that led to a fantasy land.
But it's not all true. It is not everything it was made out to be.
The actors behind the glass mock us, telling us the stories we only dream about.
They pretend to be us, drawing us into their devilish crisis,
Telling us it is okay to imagine our demise,
We tumble into the portal,
Chasing a rabid rabbit.
It bites.
And as we become infected, the darkness creeps in, flashing lights, floating orbs,
And cursed flowers shriek like a siren, and ****** like a succubus.
The mad hatter is the only sane one compared to us, but he pretends to fit in.
And the queen, she is not as ****** as she is made out to be.
She can teach us how to hide it.
Learn us a thing or two.

Like how to paint your pale lips ruby red.
Like how to smile, even if it is fake; only some care to see the real thing.
And that is the ****** up reality. No one cares about anyone but themselves.
And that's what Alice is for. We fall for it, through the looking glass, and
Trip over our own fallen soldiers.

Recreated over and over, just to get away.
I can not keep doing this,

The walls are closing in.

I have no place to turn to if I can not
Tell
My story openly.
Tell my emotions without being judged.
I know you care,
But some things, I don't want you to know.
I will talk if I want to.
If who this is directed to sees this, tell me. And I will know for sure. I don't feel safe anymore. I am being watched under a microscope.

This sense tells me there was a mistake, something
Someone found. Maybe I didn't want to be found.
